Sweet and sour glutinous rice cake fish
Overview
During this season of the year, fat-headed fish tails are extremely cheap, only costing five yuan a pound. Because the fish heads are bought by restaurants to make minced pepper fish heads, the fish tails are relatively cheap. It happens that my family all likes to eat fish. We eat fish at least twice a week, stewed in fish soup, grilled, steamed, whatever way we like to eat it. My son likes me to make glutinous rice cakes and fish, sometimes dry-fried, sometimes sweet and sour, alternating the flavors. Now that he is in the third grade of junior high school, he has to attend evening self-study and have meals delivered to him every day. The food should not be too bad, either fish or meat, with no shortage of vegetables, and it must also suit his taste. I usually buy the fish the afternoon before, have the fishmonger chop it into pieces, wash it when I get home, marinate it with shredded ginger, rice wine, salt, and pepper overnight. The fish is also delicious, and I don't delay delivering his meal in the evening. This time I made sweet and sour glutinous rice cake fish, which is both appetizing and delicious. I brought him a few more pieces when I brought him rice so that my classmates could try the fish pieces I made.
