It is said that there are many types of tilapia. I don’t know what kind of tilapia my mother brought this one. Tilapia is also called African crucian. It should be commonly known. Its meat is delicious, tender and contains a variety of unsaturated fatty acids. And rich in protein, my mother said that tilapia is "a protein source that does not require protein" in Japan. I was on a business trip last week. I took photos of the dishes I cooked and did not pass on the recipes. I will make up today. In the past, tilapia was cooked and eaten steamed. This dish of braised tilapia is also very popular with my family!

Ingredients

Braised Tilapia

1. Remove the scales and internal organs of the tilapia. Rinse the fish. Cut the fish with a diagonal knife on both sides. Marinate with salt and cooking wine for 20 minutes.

2. Shred green onion, slice ginger, slice garlic, and set aside dried chili.

3. Heat the oil in a pan and add more oil, because the tilapia should be slightly over-oiled, and the oil will be heated to 50%, and the onion, ginger, garlic, dried chili and the aroma will be exploded, and then use a colander to remove it. Put the tilapia in the pan, fry it on both sides, then remove it for later use.

Tips:

1. When frying tilapia, it's best to use a non-stick pan. I don't want to brush one more pan because I'm lazy, so the iron pan is too oily, and the skin peels off in some places, which is not beautiful. Review it here, hehe.
2. Be careful when turning the fish, don't break the fish. In fact, you can cut the fish in two at the beginning, and then put them together when you put them on the plate.
3. Don't collect the braised soup too dry, save some and pour it on the fish after finishing it on the plate.
4. It is also good to add some coriander at the end.
