ReplyDeleteLovely crispy fried talapia and nice with the ginger sauce. Like you, it must be with rice.
Fantastic way to prepare fish!! I recently bought some sweet soy sauce so I can't wait to try it out. I am glad you liked the award!! I think my blogger friendships are wonderful and I really enjoy sharing recipes with you. :)
ReplyDeleteAh I love ginger sauce, never tried it with fish, love it with chicken so why I didn't think of it before? Wonder would it work with different kinds of fishes, never had Tilapia fillets! Best regards!
