Braised Spanish Mackerel Segments

Overview

It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten mackerel, and the one I made today tasted great!

Wash the Spanish mackerel, cut it into sections, and prepare the onions, ginger and garlic
Heat oil in a pot, add onion, ginger and garlic and sauté
Add sugar, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, thirteen spices, vinegar, and mackerel, fry over low heat for a while, and coat both sides with sauce.
Put water just level with the fish into the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, turn to low heat, add salt halfway through, and turn the fish over.
When the sauce is almost gone, add the leeks and MSG, stir-fry a few times, be sure to stir gently!
It’s ready. Plate it and eat!
