Sour soup fish

1. Clean the Tilapia thoroughly. Separate the fish head and bones from the flesh. Slice the fish flesh into thin, bite-sized pieces (about 0.5 cm thick). In a bowl, marinate the fish slices with Shaoxing wine, white pepper, and cornstarch. Set aside for 15 minutes.

2. Prepare Aromatics and Vegetables: Slice ginger, smash garlic. Separate the white parts and green parts of scallions. Slice firm tofu, trim enoki mushrooms, chop napa cabbage, and rinse bean sprouts.

3. Sauté Sour Base: Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or wok over medium-high heat. Add the white parts of scallions, sliced ginger, and smashed garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
