- 1 whole Barramundi Fish
- 1 tbsp garlic
- ½ cup vinegar
- 1 cup bell pepper red and green

- 2 cups of water
- 3 tbsp tomato paste
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 small carrot cut into strips
Procedure:
- Heat 2 inches of cooking oil to 375° F. To check if the oil is hot enough is to sprinkle a small amount of salt if it sizzles so it’s ready, put the fish in the pan.
