1. 1Dice lemon grass, sliced shallots and garlic and pound till very fine in pastel and mortar.
2. 2Add oyster sauce, chicken stock and sugar and mix well. Scoop up 1 table spoon to marinate the cod fille.
3. 3Heat sauce pan with oil and add balance of mixture and saut till fragrant. Turn off heat. Side the pan aside.
4. 4Marinate cod fillet with 1 table spoon of the uncooked sauce mixture for 30 to 40 minutes, uncovered at room temperature. Spray a light coat of vegetable oil to the grill pan.
5. 5Heat the grill pan and place the cod fillets on the pan. Cook the fish for 3 mins on each side or until lightly brown. Check the center of the fish for doneness. The color should be barely opague.
6. 6Remove the fish from the grill pan and transfer to serving plate.
7. 7Heat up the cooked sauce mixture in the sauce pan and pour onto the code fillets and serve immediately.
8. 8I served the cod with bean sprout shoots and crusty freshly baked baguette. For those who do not like green taste of fresh bean sprout shoots, lightly stir fry it with garlic and oyster sauce.
