Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Start by preparing the fish fillets. Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl.

2. 2

   Add the egg white, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of Shaoxing wine, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of white pepper. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

3. 3

   Prepare a large wok with enough oil for deep frying. Heat oil to 180C then deep fry fish in batches for 3-4 minutes or until fish is cooked through. Remove from oil, drain then set it aside.

4. 4

   Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cauliflower florets and blanch for 1-2 minutes, until broccoli turn bright green. Drain, rinse in running tap water then set aside.

5. 5

   Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat. Add the garlic, ginger, and scallions and stir-fry for a few seconds until fragrant.

6. 6

   Add the fermented black beans and Shaoxing wine and stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes.

7. 7

   Add the chicken or vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Mix the cornstarch with a little bit of water and add it to the pan, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.

8. 8

   Add the cooked fish, broccoli and cauliflower to the wok and stir-fry for another minute, until everything is heated through, and the sauce coats the vegetables and fish.

   Drizzle with sesame oil and season with salt and white pepper, to taste. Serve hot with steamed rice. Enjoy!
