Ca Kho To (Vietnamese Caramelized Fish)

Ca Kho To (Vietnamese Caramelized Fish)


1. Place the oil and sugar in a 1-quart clay pot or dutch oven and heat over moderate heat.

2. When the mixture begins to turn light yellow, add the garlic and stir until it turns dark golden (but not black), about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the water and fish sauce and bring to a boil.

3. Add the catfish and turn the pieces so they are evenly coated. Simmer until the fish is done and the sauce is thickened, about 12 to 15 minutes.

4. Remove the clay pot from the heat and garnish with scallions, cilantro, and black pepper. Serve immediately from the clay pot.
