Braised crucian carp

Overview

Since I came to my mother-in-law’s house, I have found that braised crucian carp must be included in every festival. Of course, it is also our home-cooked dish now. As living conditions improve, dishes that usually appear during festivals can be cooked and eaten on a daily basis. Crucian carp is rich in nutrients, has delicious meat, high protein, and low fat. It also has the effects of clearing away heat and strengthening the spleen.
