Overview

My wife loves fish and vermicelli. My family eats it at least once a week. Today is a big gathering. How can I let it go? Hahahahahahaha. I hope you all like it. This is a secret recipe passed down from generation to generation. I won’t tell ordinary people!

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Clean the tilapia you bought and remove the fishy bones (there is a bone where the head of the fish connects to the body, remove it by hand); soak the vermicelli in advance; prepare the auxiliary ingredients: onions, ginger, garlic, star anise, and dried chili peppers.

   

2. 2 Boil water in a pot to about 80°C, blanch the fish all over (to remove the fishy smell), and scrape off the mucus with a knife. Spare.

   

3. 3 Cut the fish into a knife, prepare the egg liquid, and make hot water in advance to stew the fish later.

   

4. 4 When the oil is 60% hot, carefully add the fish covered in egg liquid and fry until both sides are golden brown and set aside.

   

5. 5 Leave the bottom oil in the pot, add the prepared ingredients, stir-fry until fragrant, and add the fried fish.

   

6. 6 Cook in the cooking wine. At this time, add a little less water to prevent the pot from being stuck. Add the prepared seasonings one by one, add the prepared hot water, and add a little more because there are vermicelli (it is fine if the vermicelli does not cover the fish).

   

7. 7 Bring to a boil and add vermicelli.

   

8. 8 Turn on high heat throughout the process. When the vermicelli is mature, pour in sesame oil and take it out of the pan (you can sprinkle some chopped green onion if you like the aroma of green onion). It’s ready to eat. Don’t overdo it~
