Mix the cooking oil and sesame oil together. Set aside. Place the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add the fish and gently toss to coat the fish with marinade for 10 minutes
Preheat 1 Tbsp of the sesame oil mixture in a non-stick skillet. Pan-fry the fish until both sides are lightly golden brown. Remove from the heat. Add another 1 Tbsp of oil. Pan fry the ginger until they are crispy. The thinner you cut the ginger, the crispier they will get. Remove from the oil into an absorbent paper towel. In the same oil, add in onion and saute until they are soft, about 3 minutes. Add the carrot, and green onions, saute for another minute. Deglaze the skillet with 1 Tbsp of wine followed by the soy sauce. Add the fish pieces and gently stir to coat the fish with the seasonings. Remove from heat into a serving platter.
