Have a plate of this for lunch, with chili pepper fish head and handmade noodles, I wouldn’t change it for a whole table of dishes.

These few days I've been a little greedy, I want to eat something spicy, I think of the fish head in the refrigerator during the Chinese New Year, take it out, freeze it, then make chili pepper fish head, just thinking about that spicy and flavorful fish head, I can’t help but drool. I can’t just eat fish head, I need to add some side dishes, I’ve been eating rice for so many days, let’s change it today, I flipped through the cabinets and couldn’t find the wide noodles I wanted, so I decided to make noodles. It’s not difficult at all!

Then I started to make the dough, using the kneading process to process the fish head and steam it, after finishing the fish head, the dough was almost kneaded, then boil the noodles, the noodles were cooked, and the fish head was steamed, put it on the table to eat, the chili pepper fish head and noodles are really delicious, it's really satisfying. This time the noodles were made very well, and the time used was also very short, I must teach you the steps later.

Today I used a grass carp fish head, I cut the fish head and froze it in the refrigerator during the Chinese New Year’s (smoked fish) making, grass carp is best for freshness, but it’s not realistic to eat fresh now, if there’s stock, it’s not bad, so I used it, in addition, freezing fish heads is also fine, they are not as flavorful as fresh ones, so next time I buy a whole fish, if I can’t finish eating it, I will freeze the fish head to eat when I’m craving it, no need to go out to buy fish head.

Let's talk about chili pepper fish head and handmade noodles separately.

The ingredients needed for chili pepper fish head: one fish head, ginger, garlic, cooking wine, steaming fish (fish vinegar), salad oil, chili peppers, pig oil.

Specific steps:

1, put a large plate, spread sliced ginger and green onions on it, the plate must be big enough, and use a deep plate to prevent the sauce from spilling out.

2, cut the washed fish head in half, put it on the plate, pour cooking wine on it for marinating.

3, slice green onions, ginger, and garlic finely for marinating, and prepare the chili pepper sauce separately.

4, pour salad oil into the wok, add a spoonful of pig oil to heat, add chopped green onions, ginger, and garlic, and chili pepper sauce, stir-fry until fragrant, season with steaming fish.

5, evenly spread the chili pepper sauce on the fish head, put it in a steaming cage, when the water boils, time it for 20 minutes. Chili pepper fish head is not the same as steaming fish, it needs to be steamed through before serving, when it’s on the table, you can easily use chopsticks to move the fish head, that’s when it’s cooked.

6, take out the steamed fish head, put chopped garlic sprouts on it, pour a spoonful of hot oil, the chili pepper fish head is finished.

Serve immediately, but I think it’s better to eat it with handmade noodles, of course, it’s not to make chili pepper fish head first, but to make good use of time, so that the fish head and noodles are on the table at the same time, which is the most perfect.

The ingredients needed for handmade noodles: 400g of dumpling flour, 3g of salt, 270g of water.

Prepare some green vegetables and salad oil separately.

1, put the flour and salt into the food processor, start the kneading program, first make a dough with a low speed, then make a dough with a medium speed for 10 minutes, make the dough have a (strength) state, at this time the dough is very soft and has good extensibility. If you don’t have a food processor, it’s difficult to knead the dough to this state by hand, don’t rush, we can use the time, put the kneaded dough in the refrigerator for 10 hours, it will become this state later. If you want to make noodles, prepare it in advance.

2, take out the dough, put it on a kneading mat, smear some oil on both sides, and flatten the dough into a rectangle about 10cm wide and 10cm long, and shape it into a rectangle.

3, cut the dough into strips about 2cm wide, smear some salad oil on the surface, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it stand naturally for about 30 minutes. If there’s enough time, the longer it stands, it doesn’t matter. So, first in the kitchen, make the dough, and then do other things, wait until you finish other things, the dough will be ready.

4, pull out a noodle strip, you can easily pull it open and boil water.

5, when the water boils, put the noodle strip into the pot and cook it.

6, when cooking noodles, it’s recommended to cook one bowl at a time, unless you pull noodles very quickly, otherwise, the noodles cooked first will not be cooked when you put the later ones in, the difference in maturity is not good to cook. Add the prepared green vegetables and cook them together.

7, pull out the noodles, put them in a bowl, and add the chili pepper fish head to the table, drizzle the chili pepper fish head juice on the noodles, it’s very delicious!
