Ingredients

Proteins

  • 400 g firm white fish fillet, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 250 ml water or fish stock

Aromatics

  • 0.5 tsp white pepper
  • 3 slices ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1 stalk scallion, cut into 2-inch lengths (white parts separated)

Sauces & Seasonings

  • 1 tsp Shaoxing wine
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 0.5 tsp sugar
  • 0.25 tsp salt

Vegetables

  • 2 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges

Other

  • 150 g pickled mustard greens, rinsed and sliced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate fish: Pat fish fillet dry. In a bowl, combine fish pieces with Shaoxing wine, white pepper, and cornstarch. Mix gently and set aside for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare pickled mustard greens: Rinse the pickled mustard greens thoroughly under cold water to remove excess salt. Squeeze dry and slice thinly.

  3. 3

    Sear fish: Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add the marinated fish pieces and sear for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    Sauté aromatics and vegetables: In the same wok, add a little more oil if needed. Add ginger slices, sliced garlic, and white parts of scallions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add sliced pickled mustard greens and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add tomato wedges and stir-fry for 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Braise: Pour in the braising liquid. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Return the seared fish to the wok. Cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until fish is cooked through and flavors are well combined. Gently stir in the green parts of scallions just before serving.
