Wanzhou grilled fish, a special delicacy originating in Chongqing, combines three cooking techniques of pickling, roasting and stewing in the process of spreading. It fully draws on the characteristics of traditional Sichuan cuisine and the characteristics of Sichuan hot pot ingredients. The eight signature flavors have become "Chongqing Food Business Cards" ". When it comes to grilled fish, everyone’s mind must be slap-sized live fish or dried fish, which is directly placed on a charcoal fire like beef and lamb skewers, with a little salt, pepper and other seasonings, grilled and ready to eat. The Wanzhou grilled fish adopts the unique method of “roasting first and then stewing”, which combines the essence of the two cooking techniques of roasting and stewing. The first step is to take live fish, which can be sea fish such as Spanish mackerel, or black fish, grass carp, and white fish. Freshwater fish such as silver carp, silver carp, carp, and tilapia. This time Xiaoyun uses tilapia as an example to introduce how to make Wanzhou grilled fish! Because tilapia has few bones, Xiaoyun is a lazy person who doesn't like many spines. Of course, you can’t use charcoal to cook at home. Let’s use the oven to make this dish. You can replace tilapia with any other fish!

Homemade Wanzhou Grilled Fish

1. Cut the fish apart, clean it up, add salt, cooking wine, and pepper to marinate

2. Place the marinated fish in a baking dish lined with tin foil, and brush both sides of the fish with corn oil and sesame oil

3. Sprinkle with cumin powder, pepper, five-spice powder, chili powder

4. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees and bake for 30 minutes (Of course, you can also use charcoal to grill the fish if you have the conditions. It is more convenient to use the oven for home practice)

5. Take it out after 30 minutes, brush with a layer of oil, put it in the oven at 220 degrees, and continue to bake for 15 minutes. At this time, the skin of the basic fish will be crispy.

6. When grilling the fish, let’s prepare the ingredients: cut the onion into pieces, slice the garlic, cut the green onion into pieces, cut the dried chili into pieces, and cut the pepper into pieces.

7. Pickled peppers are cut into circles, pickled ginger is cut into small pieces, and rouge radish is cut into long strips

8. Wash the celery and cut into sections for later use

9. Put more oil in the pot, heat it up and stir-fry the red oil in Ru Pixian Doubanjiang

10. Then add pickled ginger, pickled pepper, pickled radish, garlic flakes, dried chili, and peppercorns and stir fry to create a fragrance

11. Then add the celery segments

12. Add 2 spoons of oyster sauce, 1 spoon of pepper

13. 1 tablespoon of salt and a small teaspoon of white sugar to taste, add a small amount of broth or water, boil on and off, and serve as a base

14. Pour the bottom material on the fish

15. Bake in the oven at 220 degrees for another 20 minutes (this step is the same as cooking the fish on the street outside and heating it on charcoal fire. The fish soup will also boil and the flavor will be boiled into the fish during the process of grilling)

16. Sprinkle with pepper powder, garnish with coriander and chopped green onion, then serve

Tips:
1. According to personal taste, tempeh can be used instead of bean paste, and the spiciness can be adjusted by yourself;
2. The finished fish soup can be used to mix noodles or cook vegetables very well;
3. The oven is controlled according to your own experience, and the temperature can be from high to low.
