Teochew Steamed Pomfret Fish

Recipe by 831c2bbed306d52121e560ed50646ca5?s=30&r=gTrish yee
You can find steamed pomfret fish in any Teochew porridge places. It is a almost like a soul dish of Teochew cuisine. The fish is dressed in seasoning sauce that is packed with distinct flavours coming from the salted mustard and plums. My favourite pairing will be with a hot pipping bowl of porridge!
