Sichuan restaurants can also be seen on many streets in foreign countries, which shows how popular Sichuan cuisine is. Sichuan cuisine is heavy in oil and spicy, which stimulates people's taste buds. What are the twelve classic Sichuan dishes? Let’s take a look at a few of them. Boiled fish Ingredients: 1 silver carp weighing about 3 pounds, bean sprouts, green onions, dried chili peppers, pickled peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, ginger, garlic, chicken essence, soy powder, cooking wine, salt, and bean paste. Method: 1. Kill the fish, clean it, slice it into fillets, and chop the fish fillets into pieces. 2. Mix the fish fillets with a little salt, cooking wine and cornstarch, and marinate for 30 minutes. 3. Pour a small amount of vegetable oil into the pot and stir-fry the bean sprouts until 70% cooked. Remove from the pot and spread them on the bottom of a bowl for later use. 4. Use a small pot to boil water, pour in the marinated fish, cook over high heat for 1-2 minutes and remove from heat. 5. Place the cooked fish gently on top of the bean sprouts, pour in the soup to cover 4/5 of the fish, and sprinkle with appropriate amount of chicken essence on top. 6. Add three times the amount of oil you normally use for cooking in a clean pot. When the oil is hot, add appropriate amount of fermented black beans and sauté until fragrant. Add chopped pickled peppers, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns and stir-fry over medium-low heat. After the flavor comes out, add dried chilies, continue to stir-fry for a while, then add scallions, stir-fry a few times, and pour into the bowl with the fish.
