Braised Fish Nuggets

Overview

My brother-in-law brought a huge white fish to my mother. Its head was as big as a pot lid. White fish is mild in nature, sweet in taste, and non-toxic. It returns to the spleen, stomach, and liver meridians. It has the functions of stimulating appetite and digestion, losing weight and moisturizing the skin, nourishing the kidneys and brain, tonifying the liver, and improving eyesight. There are many benefits of eating more white fish! But the taste of white fish is not very good. Although there is a saying that herring tail is white fish head, it also means that only the fish head is delicious, and the fish body is thicker and has many spines. I cooked the fish head with Chinese cabbage, and made the fish body into fish cubes. The fish was cooked with rich red sauce, and it was salty and delicious.

  4. Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar and cooking wine and cook for a while. Add 1 large bowl of water. Bring to a boil from high to low heat. You can turn the fish pieces over and cover them to simmer. You can also open the lid and pour the soup onto the fish pieces with a spoon. Cook until the fish is cooked and reduce the juice over high heat.
