Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not dry the grouper too long, as it will become tough; drying indoors with a fan for only 5 to 6 hours is ideal.
  • Placing wooden chopsticks on the steamer base prevents the fish from sticking and breaking apart.
  • Never transfer the fish while hot—always wait at least 30 minutes for it to cool completely before placing it on a plate.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking an elegant fish dish perfect for holiday or special occasions.
  • Home cooks interested in professional techniques for preparing delicate fish without breaking the flesh.
  • Fans of the balanced harmony between spicy-savory sauce and tender fish meat.
