Grass carp is rich in nutrients and has a thick meat quality. It is a fish that people prefer on the dining table. Compared with fishy sea fish, the cooking method of grass carp is relatively simple. You can braised or cooked with stir-fried fish . However, if it is not done well, the meat will become old and will greatly affect the taste. Today I will share with you a new method of making grass carp. The grass carp produced in this way has no earthy smell at all, the meat is also delicious, and the soup is even more delicious. Since I learned about this, I have never made braised grass carp again. Let’s take a look at the specific methods below to ensure that you will not get tired of eating it five times a week.
To make this dish we need to accurately grasp the following ingredients: grass carp, eggs, flour, green onion, ginger, garlic, salt, light soy sauce, bean paste, chili sauce, soybean paste, pickled pepper, pepper powder, beer.
Let’s take a look at the steps of this dish:
1. We buy a fresh grass carp from the market, so that the fish seller can handle it and just wash it when you go home.
If grass carp wants to taste not fishy, we need to remove the layer of black film in the fish belly, and also the fish bones and blood must be cleaned.
2. First cut off fins , and cut them cleanly in every place. Then cut the grass carp into fish segments with a thickness of about 1 cm. We also keep the fish head and can chop it in half to make it more delicious.
3. Cut some ginger slices and green onion slices, cut them and put them together with the fish. Put a spoonful of salt, two spoonfuls of cooking wine, two spoonfuls of light soy sauce to enhance the flavor, and one spoonful of oyster sauce to enhance the freshness. Grab evenly with your hands and grab for a while, so that it will make it taste better. Set aside and marinate for about 20 minutes.
4. While this time, prepare orders of side dishes, cut a few pickled peppers into chili rings, chop a few garlic into minced garlic, and a piece of ginger into minced ginger. Then prepare an onion in half, then cut it into shreds and shake it open with your hands.
5. Add two eggs to the bowl, beat them apart, add four spoons of flour, pour in a little water, and stir until there are no particles in the batter and it is more viscous. Put the fish pieces inside and wrap them on top of the batter, and cook oil in the pot. When the oil temperature is 50% or 60% hot, you can put the fish pieces wrapped in and fry them. Fry slowly over medium-low heat to allow the fish to slowly shape in the pot. Fry one side golden and then turn over. Take out both sides golden and take them out to control oil and set aside.
6. Find a casserole, put the onion shreds in and place the bottom, put the fish pieces next to each other, and place the fish head in the middle.
7. Put the chili sauce into the pot and stir-fry, then add a spoonful of bean paste and soybean paste. After stir-frying, pour in ginger and garlic, continue stir-frying, pour in a little water for about a minute, add a can of beer after the soup boils. Continue to boil the soup, then season it, add a spoonful of chicken essence, a spoonful of salt, two spoonfuls of light soy sauce, add some pepper, and then mix the flavor and pour the soup directly into the casserole.
8. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover with a lid and simmer for ten minutes. Open the lid and it smells so good that it is very appetizing. Finally, sprinkle a little chopped green onion and you can enjoy it out of the pot.
Love tips:
