2. Coat each piece of sliced fish in cornstarch and quickly drop into the very hot oil to deep fry about 1 minute until it becomes brown and crispy. Remove it and drain off the oil.

3. Heat 3 tablespoon of oil in frying pan to stir fry the diced onions and curry. Then add the already prepared seasoning sauce. Stir briskly until it thickened. Add green peas. Turn off the fire and add the fried fish. Stir until blended. Serve immediately.
