Catching conger eel is challenging, and extracting them from nets is even more difficult. Experienced fishermen have their own methods to deal with them, hence the relatively high price of conger eel compared to other types of fish.

How to cook delicious sour bamboo shoots braised conger eel

 

To cook sour bamboo shoots braised conger eel, you'll need the following ingredients:

 

  • 500g fresh conger eel
  • 300g fresh bamboo shoots

  • Note: When boiling the hot pot, regularly skim off any foam to keep the broth clear and more flavorful.
  • Season with an additional 1/3 tablespoon of sugar, 5 teaspoons of salt, and 3 teaspoons of seasoning powder.
  • Using the same pan, sauté the remaining garlic and onion until fragrant. Then, add the diced tomatoes and cook until softened.
  • Pour this mixture into the hot pot to simmer. Simmer over low heat, and for added spiciness, you can add chili paste and chili peppers.
  • Add conger eel into the boiling hot pot, then add coriander and cilantro to enhance the aroma.
