Exclusive Grilled Fish

Butterflied carp gets grilled until the skin crackles, then drowned in a fiery sauce of broad bean paste and hot pot base over a bed of bean sprouts, enoki mushrooms, and onions. Smoky, numbing, and spicy — a restaurant-style showstopper.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    Blanch bean sprouts and enoki mushrooms for 30 seconds, drain, and place them on a plate.
