We are located in Yumi Water Village in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many kinds of freshwater fishes. In addition to conventional species such as saury, crucian carp and flatfish, the common people also like to eat silver carp, and they like to use silver carp head to cook casserole fish head Soup or making chopped pepper fish head, so the price of buying fish head alone in the market is about twice as high as that of whole silver carp, but I don’t love the body of silver carp very much. I think the meat is thick. There are many thorns, and it will have a smell of soil if it is not done well, which will affect the taste~~~
Because I was greedy for chopped pepper fish head, I took advantage of the weekend to go to the market and bought a large silver carp. The silver carp must be big enough to be delicious, at least 4 catties or more; the fish head is gluttonous but has no meat to eliminate it quickly. But the big fish body is left. If we cook the braised fish with our old couple’s food intake, it would be meaningless to eat for at least 2~3 days. So I thought of the home-style braised chicken method for cooking. The operation is simple, but The cooked fish is particularly delicious and tender, and it tastes so refreshing to eat one piece after another; haha: It’s really beautiful to eat two fish like this~~~

Baked Fish Cubes in Casserole

1. Prepare the ingredients

2. Wash the body of the silver carp, drain the water, and cut into large pieces. The width is better than your fingers. Cut the green onion and ginger for later use.

3. Put the green onion, ginger and fish cubes in a basin, add salt, sugar, cooking wine, five-spice powder and very fresh soy sauce

4. Knead it evenly and marinate for 3~4 hours for good taste

5. Take out the marinated fish, shake off the green onion and ginger and place it in the cornstarch pan. Coat both sides with a thin layer of cornstarch evenly. Don't pour out the marinade that oozes out when marinating the fish. It will be useful later.

6. Heat up the pan, pour in an appropriate amount of cooking oil, and then add the fish cubes coated with cornstarch

7. Turn on the medium heat, and slowly fry the fish on both sides in turn. Turn off the heat. If you want to save trouble, you can eat it directly. The crispy meat is tender.

8. Put the washed green onion and ginger slices and coriander head into the casserole to make the bottom, put it on the gas stove and heat it up on a low heat

9. After the casserole heats up, add the fish cubes that have just been fried, and then pour the marinade of the marinated fish

10. Covered with high fire, fast braised fish cubes

11. When the sound of Zizi gradually becomes smaller, it indicates that the water in the casserole has gradually dried. At this time, the hot air in the casserole is boiling when the lid is opened, and the fragrance is tangy

12. Quickly drip a little vinegar around the casserole to remove the fishy smell and increase the fragrance. Finally, sprinkle some coriander, and use the remaining temperature to make the coriander taste immersed in the fish to further enhance the fragrance and flavor.

Tips:
1. The thickness of the sliced fish should be moderate. It is too thin and easy to scatter and affects the appearance. If it is too thick, it is not easy to taste, and the width is slightly wider than the finger.
2. If you want the fish to be delicious and tender, the marinating step is the key. A longer time can make the seasoning better immerse into the fish, which will remove the fishy and make the bottom taste of the fish full.
3. Fish meat is easier to mature than other meats, so don't worry about it when frying fish. Turn on medium and low heat and fry slowly. The fish will be cooked and eaten when it is browned.
4. Finally, the casserole needs to be heated in advance before adding the fish cubes, which can shorten the braising time. It only takes about 2 minutes to make the fish crispy and more delicious.
