Tender Tofu and Sea Bass Stew

I always steamed sea bass after buying it before. Today, I made a tender tofu and sea bass stew that was even more flavorful and delicious than steamed. The whole family raved about how fresh, fragrant, and tender it was. This tender tofu and sea bass stew features sea bass and tofu as the main ingredients: the fish pieces are marinated in soy sauce, oyster sauce, cooking wine, pepper, scallions, and ginger until fragrant and flavorful, then simmered in a clay pot with pan-fried tofu until slightly golden brown. Onions, garlic, and Sichuan peppercorns (with a touch of spicy chili peppers) bring out a rich and savory aroma. The texture is tender and smooth, and the broth is perfect with rice—a hot and satisfying meal for the whole family.
