Braised fish

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Prepare the ingredients: massage the fish with a small spoonful of salt, mince the tomatoes and garlic, shred the ginger, and chop the chili peppers, scallions, and cilantro.

   Step 2

   Coat the fish with a thin layer of cornstarch; this makes it easier to shape and less likely to stick to the pan (optional). Then, pour oil into the pan and fry until golden brown, or slightly browned.

   Step 3

   Remove the pan-fried fish and set aside. Don't discard the oil; sauté garlic, ginger, and chili until fragrant, then add tomatoes and stir-fry together. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and salt, then pour in about 7 bowl of water. Bring to a boil, then add the fish and cook on both sides. Reduce the sauce over high heat, then taste and adjust seasoning.
