Ingredients

  • Fish head 1 (about 500g)
  • Chopped chili 3 tablespoons
  • Ginger 2 slices (minced)
  • Garlic 3 cloves (minced)
  • Green onion 2 stalks (chopped)
  • Cooking oil 3 tablespoons
  • Salt to taste
  • Soy sauce 1 tablespoon
  • Sugar 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cornstarch 1 teaspoon (dissolved in water)
  • Water 1/2 cup

Steps

  1. Clean the fish head thoroughly and pat it dry with a paper towel. Cut it into several pieces.
  2. Heat the cooking oil in a wok or pan. Add the minced ginger, garlic, and chopped chili, and stir-fry until fragrant.
  3. Add the fish head pieces to the wok and stir-fry for a few minutes until the fish head turns white.
