Cooking StepsHow to cook Stir-fried Dried Fish with Green Peppers and Tofu Skin step by step

Step 1 Detail

Soak the dried fish to rehydrate, adding cooking wine and ginger slices to the soaking water.
Step 2 Detail

Trim off the dorsal fin, head, and belly of the dried fish. Pay special attention to any black residual innards — remove them thoroughly. Change the water and continue soaking, making sure the inside of the fish body is fully soaked as well.
Step 3 Detail

Slice the green peppers and dried tofu. Prepare the bird’s eye chili, garlic, and ginger. Get everything ready for cooking.
Step 4 Detail

Heat oil in a wok, then pan-fry the prepared dried fish until the skin turns slightly golden brown. Remove the fish and discard the residual oil.
Step 5 Detail

Add fresh oil to the wok. Add the garlic, ginger, and bird’s eye chili. You can also add some fermented black beans or yellow bean paste. Stir-fry until fragrant.
Step 6 Detail

Add the pan-fried dried fish back to the wok along with cooking wine. Stir-fry for 1 minute.
Step 7 Detail

Add the dried tofu slices and soy sauce. Continue stir-frying for 1 minute.
Step 8 Detail

Add the sliced green peppers and season with salt. Stir-fry for 1 minute and it’s ready to serve. From the moment the fish goes back in, each step takes about 1 minute — 3 minutes total. Before serving, you can add a touch of chicken bouillon, MSG, or umami seasoning if desired.
