Braised Pomfret
This savory **Pomfret with Pickled Pepper and Aniseed** is a mouthwatering dish that brings together tender fish and bold, aromatic flavors. Fresh pomfret is lightly scored to absorb the rich sauce, then pan-cooked to perfection with a fragrant mix of onions, garlic, and spicy pickled peppers. The dish gets its depth from stir-fried soy sauce and cooking wine, while star aniseed infuses a warm, licorice-like aroma. A quick sear over high heat locks in moisture, and a gentle flip ensures even cooking. Finished with a sprinkle of pepper and extra aniseed, this pomfret recipe delivers a perfect balance of spice, umami, and herbal notes—ideal for a flavorful family meal. Try it for a restaurant-quality seafood dish at home!
