Kerapu Kukus Teochew

This was a few days ago menu...when Mr Hubby was home early...asked him which steam fish recipe that he preferred after showing him this book..he choose this one..'Steamed Grouper Teochew Style'.
This dish is definitely not hot and it suits, those people who are in confinement and in state of recovering ..
as usual the birds eyes chillies I just throw in and it did not make the dish hot as I didnt sliced them..

Marsya ate the chicken bites and the gravy, with white rice and she loved it..
The dish, was quite unique, as chicken meat, salted mustard leaves and mushrooms were added to give the food  more ingredients  instead of just the fish..

As for the boys, this was a no, no dish for them..so I got to cook another dish for them...
