Hello, everyone
We tried stone pot hot pot fish last time
But it was not very successful
The stone pot is broken
So this time I picked up some stones in the river
Those pebbles
Make another fish dish
Today's fish choice is a grass carp
This fish is over four jins (2kg)
Just like what we did for a fish soup
Take the bones out
Give it a pan fry
Then boil it into a white fish soup
Also cut the fish fillet into slices
Put them on top of hot pebbles
Make another hotpot boiled fish
Uncle, you'll be satisfied this time
Good
Handle the fish now
Huh
Watch out, take it easy
Has this fish practised the "Iron Head Technique"?
This fish is tough
See if this works
This is good
The thinner the fish is, the more tender it tastes
Thin slices
The bones will be very short
Not much
Okay, the fish filet slices is ready
Wash it now
Grab some salt and wash
Add a bowl of water
This fish needs to be washed a few times
If not, it will smell very fishy
Wash again in here
Will you use wide oil this time?
Wide oil
We will use wide oil for another purpose this time, Uncle
Really need to use wide oil?
Yeah
So I guessed it right
Done washing
This fish fillet is washed white
Squeeze the water out
Put in some salt
The salt is slightly heavier than in a stir-fry
Some white peppercorn powder in
Open your hand
Turn slowly in here
Shake some egg white into it
It will come out by itself
Give it a gentle mix
OK, now it's good
Give it some starch
Not too much
A pinch will do
Just enough to hold the egg white
That's it
Pour some oil over it after it's marinated
Cut a bit hot pot base
And then cut it
Break it up
Lat time we also used it to cook fish
Parboil the fish bones first
Okay, take the fish bones out
It's more nice to fry fish bones in lard
Because I have a very strong fire in this stove
I can add cold water to make it whit
Okay, the soup is ready
So this will filter out the bones and bites
Yes
Hotpot base down
That smells good!
Then pour this soup down and simmer it
Three minutes are up, fish those out
Separate the vegetables from the soup
Put them over there
Put it in the other pot
Then the soup into this pot
Now we'll add a little bit of wide oil
Okay, that's enough
And then here comes the pebbles
We already wash and clean the pebbles
Turn on medium heat
Heat this pebble
Until it's almost 180-190 °C
Okay, turn off the heat
Oh, one of them is broken
It doesn't matter
Some pebbles don't stand up to the heat, they're going to break
Yeah, it's just like that stone pot, isn't it?
Okay, let's serve
Now we'll start with some scallions
The scallion is about adding flavour
Put on top
Some boiled vegetables
Give it different layers
Fresh celery
Then the the fish filets, put them on top of the celery
Don't let it contact the pebbles directly
Or else
It's already over cooked before the soup is poured
We don't want that
Let's evenly spread them on top
Can you smell it, Uncle?
I'm sure I smell it
Can you smell the celery?
I smell it
See this
This can cause applause sound
Here we go
Can you feel it?
For now
We sprinkle some minced garlic
It's similar to Spicy Boiled Fish
Some dried chilli
Again some chopped spring onion
The soup is still boiling
Don't think there's no more heat
There's still plenty of energy
Just add some the hot oil which was used to heat the pebbles
It will be absolutely delicious
Come on, Uncle, eat
Let's eat
Get it on
Let me eat a small piece first
Surely it's nice
It's definitely good
The hot oil is poured on
Very smooth tender
Nice
This tastes good
Still can feel some fish bones
So tender
This is
Hard core dish but tender texture
Tastes like Tofu
One difference between this and spicy boiled fish is that
This flavour is very layered
First the pickled vegetables padded the base
And then the celery
Also the scallions
This celery tastes so good
Scallion, celery, pickled vegetables on the bottom
The fish fillet is laid on top of the celery and separated from the hot stones
Then the fish soup is poured down
Before the soup down completely
The fish fillets are being steamed
The steam comes out when soup meat hot pebble
The heat came up and the fish was steamed
Steam to cook it
Okay
I'll share more later if you like this type of video
The rural cooks in our village won't do this in this way
If you know to to do it, it's easy
They probably never even seen it like this before
I never seen it before
This was when I was a kid and went out to learn all kinds of things
What I saw and learned
Sometimes you just need experience
So it's better to go outside to see more
You can't clear a lot of things if you don't go beyond comfortable zone
What I saw and learned made what I am today
It really is
Eat fish
Never to late to go outside and see
Yeah
