Fish head with chopped pepper

Overview

Fish head with chopped pepper is a well-known dish in Hunan cuisine. It has the advantages of bright red color, strong flavor and tender meat. Usually silver carp is used to make this dish. I bought a big grass carp today. Because the body part is to be smoked, I used the grass carp head to make this minced pepper fish head. The result is also very delicious, so fresh.
