to taste Salt Essential for seasoning; adjust amounts to your taste.

Return the crispy sea bass fillets to the skillet, add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Toss to coat for 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed.
Plate the Ginger Onion Fried Sea Bass hot, drizzling any remaining sauce over the top. Serve with steamed rice or salad.
