Super Easy Singapore Style Claypot Braised Fish 砂锅鱼 Chinese Hawker Zi Char Fish Recipe

If you have the chance to visit Singapore, you must eat like a local and dine at a zi char stall. Zi char (sometimes spelled Tze Char), is a Singaporean colloquial term that literally mean "cook fry". Derived from the Chinese Hokkien dialect, zi char refers to a food stall that serves a variety of home-cooked Singaporean or Malaysian style Chinese food cooked on demand. Almost every coffeeshop in Singapore has a zi char, and I would say every one of them has claypot fish head on their menu. We shared a claypot fish head recipe when we first started this channel (   • How to make Singapore Claypot Braised Fish...  ). Although the recipe is yummy IMHO, the video was poorly shot and Roland was quite shy (LOL!). That's why we decided to update it with a new video, and instead of using a fish head, we used the other part of the fish instead. This claypot braised fish is really delicious. As we added a lot of ingredients to the recipe, you only need this one dish and some steamed rice to call it a meal. Happy cooking! See the ingredient list below for your easy reference. Hope you can recreate this yummy recipe in the comfort of your home. Happy cooking! Thanks for dropping by our channel. Please subscribe to stay tuned to our home cooking videos. Stalk us!
