A silver carp is about three and a half catties, and the fish bones are chopped into a length of about four centimeters. Chop the fish head in half and cut the chin into four pieces. Cut the meat from both sides of the fish spine into fish fillets (knife is not good, cut into pieces with a length of 4✕1 cm). The belly of the fish has thick spines, and cut into strips about two centimeters wide along the thick spines.

Rub well to remove the fishy.

Six or seven green onions are about 30 cm long. There are four or five pao gingers with a diameter of one centimeter and a length of about four centimeters. There are about three or four pickled peppers with a length of four centimeters. (You can choose the variety and amount of pickled peppers according to your taste. Choose red pickled peppers for softer ones, and yellow millet hot pickled peppers for more exciting ones). There are about ten dried peppers about four centimeters long. A piece of ginger with a diameter of about one centimeter and a length of about two centimeters, and about six or seven cloves of garlic.

13.
Add the blanched water and drain the tofu and fry until (turn the pan in a circle while placing the tofu, so that after the tofu cubes are placed, the tofu will not stick to the pan even if you don’t shake the tofu too much. A small reminder will explain the reason), and then every 20 Slightly shake the pan for a second or half a minute or so to prevent the fried tofu from sticking to the pan and sticking to the hot pan. (The time varies, about one or two minutes to fry one side, depending on the heat and the amount of oil.

Tips:
1. Put the tofu in the blanched water and drain it for frying, and shake the pan in a circular motion while placing the tofu cubes, so that after the tofu cubes are placed, the tofu will not stick to the pan even if the tofu is not shaken much, because the pan will not stick to the pan at the beginning. Long stick pot, once the tofu is slightly browned, it will not stick or stick to the pot again.
2. After that, shake the pan slightly every 20 seconds or half a minute or so to prevent the fried tofu from sticking to the pan and the hot pan for a long time to fry (but this time the most important thing is to prevent frying, because the effect of the steps introduced in the previous 1 The problem of sticking pot has been basically solved). (In the red oil tofu and braised tofu recipes, the effect of this step was not emphasized. Now I will explain the reasons in detail.)
3. I won’t go into details about the other contents related to the processing of Ermian Yellow Tofu. If you want to know more about it, please see my two recipes of Red Oil Tofu and Braised Tofu.
4. In the braised tofu fish, the bottom material is fried, the bottom soup is boiled, and the steps are basically the same as my recipe book of boiled fish (also known as pickled pepper boiled fish), except that the time for enlarging the green onion is different, because The cooking time of the two dishes is different, so the order is slightly different.
5. Other things to pay attention to about braised boiled fish, so I won't go into details. If you want to learn more, please see my recipe book of boiled fish.
6. Because a lot of beer is added, there is a step-by-step procedure to open the lid and boil it to disperse the alcohol and leave the aroma of wheat.
