What is Chili Fish?

For the uninitiated, Chili Fish is a popular Asian dish that originated in Sichuan, China. The basic recipe consists of batter-fried fish cooked in a spicy chilli pepper-based sauce, often served with vegetables, nuts, and garnishes. However, its simplicity belies the complexity of flavours and variations that have evolved over time.

The Origins of Chili Fish

Legend has it that Chili Fish was created by accident in the Sichuan province of China. A chef, desperate to impress a group of hungry diners, threw together a mixture of leftover fish, chilli peppers, garlic, and ginger to create a dish that would become a staple of Sichuan cuisine. Today, Chili Fish is enjoyed not only in China but also across Asia. And its popularity has spread globally, with each region adding its unique twist to the original recipe.
