"Apologies for my awkward descriptions since it’s my very first shared recipe in English! There’re many variations of this fish but I chose to share this basic one. It’s delicious serving with rice. Dark soy sauce darkens food color and soy sauce adds a salty flavor. Feel free to adjust the amount based on your preference. Tips: ingredients such as star anise, cooking wine, sugar, dried red peppers, scallions and gingers are helpful in getting rid of the rancid taste of meat blood. Bon appetite!"

  • Step 5/5

    Remove the lid and turn the heat back to high. Carefully watch the water because it evaporates quite fast. Stir the ribs if needed in case they get sticky to the pot/wok. The ribs are done when there’s only a little broth left and it should be a bit sticky. Their color is also much darker.
