Fish with Preserved Soya Beans and Tomatoes


I was back in Taiping home last weekend and thought it has been a while since I cooked for my family, so I decided to have some fun in the kitchen! This is one of the dishes I cooked for lunch (and dinner) on Sunday.
*Doesn't look delicious from this picture but this is really easy to cook and it taste great! You can't even see the fish in this pic because they were swimming in the pool of gravy ;p

Ingredients:
Fish (you can use any kind of fish) - clean and rub the fish with some salt
Tomatoes
Spring onions
Chilli
Garlic
Ginger
Preserved bean paste (known as "tau cheong" in Cantonese)
Salt
Oil

Water

Method:
1. Heat enough oil in a wok and fry the fish till golden brown. Dish up and leave aside.
2. Scoop up the excess oil from frying. Leave a little oil in the wok and stir fry some garlic.
3. Add in the ginger, chilli and preserved bean paste.
4. Stir fry till fragrant. Add tomatoes and stir fry for a while.
5. Put in water (enough for gravy) and cook till it boils.
6. Add in the fish and let it simmer for ~1min. Add in the spring onions.
7. Cook for ~1min and dish up.
