Among the ways to eat Monopterus albus, the most common one is stir-fried Monopterus albus, and there are others, which are less. However, no matter what you do, you can't cook it directly. After all, this kind of thing has a strong earthy smell. If it is not handled well, it will greatly affect the taste and cause discomfort.
Moreover, there will be some mucus on the eel, which must be cleaned before frying. So how to deal with eels? Today, I will teach you the correct method. Do the key 1 step before doing it, and the eel will be tender and tasteless. Do it with me.
Ingredients: Monopterus albus, onion, ginger and garlic, dried pepper, bean paste, soy sauce, yellow wine, cooking wine, salt, sugar, chicken essence, pepper and cooking oil.
1. We need to chop off the bought head of Monopterus albus, and then treat it, such as internal organs, and then treat the mucus on the surface. We add a proper amount of flour to eel and rub it for a while until it is clean.
Next, we clean the eel and cut it into small pieces. After the eel is cut, we put it in a bowl, then add cooking wine and pepper, and marinate it for a period of time, which can effectively remove the fishy smell of eel without earthy smell.
Next, after we cut all the onions, ginger, garlic and dried peppers, we are ready to fry them. Add an appropriate amount of oil to the pan, and after the pan is heated by high fire, you can add onions, ginger, garlic and dried peppers, stir-fry until fragrant, add a spoonful of Pixian bean paste, continue to stir-fry, and then pour in eel and stir-fry constantly.
4. Add the eel and stir-fry until it is broken. Then we add the right amount of rice wine, salt, sugar and chicken essence, and continue to stir-fry for a while until it is evenly fried. This kind of fried eel can be cooked by turning off the heat.
