Dinner - 26 July 2010

Tonight another so-called diet meal - Herbal Soup & Steamed Fishes. Hehehe...



Ingredients:

• Chicken
• Red Dates
• Dried Longan
• Dried Fig
• Huai San
• Yu Zhu
• Cordyceps
• Wolfberries
• Ginseng Roots
• Salt to taste

Ingredients

• Fishes - Baby Red Snapper, Kamkuey, "Dunno-What-Fish" (probably Baby Grouper)
• Shallot
• Garlic
• Ginger
• Dried Chili
• Chili Padi
• Wolfberries
• Canola Cooking Oil
• Sesame Seed Oil
• Light Soy Sauce
• Chinese Cooking Wine

Steamed fish on high heat for 5 minutes then simmer with no heat for 5 minutes.

The verdict - Fishes:

• Kamkuey (Jack Fish) flesh was a bit dry for my liking. It's like the black pomfret flesh.
• Baby Red Snapper was sweet and juicy. Nice when steamed.
• "Dunno-What-Fish" (probably baby grouper) has the flaky flesh which I like. And it's was sweet, creamy and juicy similar to cod.
