Braised Pomfret with Five-spice
This aromatic and flavorful Mandarin Fish recipe is a must-try for seafood lovers! Marinated in a rich blend of five-spice powder, star anise, cumin, pepper, soy sauce, and cooking wine, the fish absorbs deep, savory-sweet notes. The secret lies in overnight refrigeration, allowing the spices to fully infuse. Scallion knots and ginger shreds tucked inside enhance freshness, while a crispy, golden crust forms during baking. Sprinkled with white sesame seeds for a nutty finish, this dish offers tender, flaky fish with a perfect balance of spices. Easy to prepare yet impressive, it’s ideal for a gourmet meal at home. Bake to perfection for a restaurant-worthy result every time!
