Spicy and Sour Fish Maw Soup (Foochow style) 酸辣鱼鳔~~欢喜过马年

After I deep fry the fish maw, then I used it to cook this spicy and sour fish maw soup, love this version too ! very appetizing indeed..


 
Fish maw itself taste is bland, so you need other ingredients to give it flavours.. 
 
How to cook..
 
To cook this nice dish, suggest to use Kampong Koh chili sauce ..

 
Still remember this old fashioned of soup bowl with " a boy playing ping pong", got last two pieces from the usual shop..

  13. This reminds me of my SIL & I trying our first attempt on frying the fish maw years ago. Both of us didn't even have any idea how to fry this kind of things. And we ended up throwing the whole thing away. haha... Fresh fish maw is very expensive then and we actually get scolded by our FIL for such mistake.
