Mustard Greens, Clams and Fish Head Soup 芥菜大蜆魚頭湯

Mustard Greens, Clams and Fish Head Soup 芥菜大蜆魚頭湯

Fish head can be substituted with fish bones. If using a large fish head, have your fish monger chop the fish head into smaller pieces, approx. 6cm for easier frying. Besides clams, you can use razor clams or mussels. Add mung bean vermicelli or rice vermicelli to make it a meal. But be sure to put the fish head or fish bone in a fish bag to prevent bones from getting mixed with the vermicelli. It’s also common to add tofu, fish balls and preserved vegetables to this soup.

Easy Buddha Jumps Over the Wall 簡易佛跳牆

Easy Buddha Jumps Over the Wall 簡易佛跳牆

The ingredients I used in this recipe can all be vamped up depending on your budget. I spent around NULL Canadian and NULL of that went into the frozen sea cucumbers. For environmental reasons, I didn’t use any wild caught items and I found everything at a Chinese supermarket. I also didn’t use any shark’s fin. I used mung bean vermicelli instead which I actually like more because it soaks up the very flavourful sauce. This is an “easy” recipe designed to not break the bank but still super delicious and impressive!
