How to Make a Delicious, Easy and Special Cork Fish Tongseng

How to Process Cork Fish Before Cooking:

Our first step will be to take the prepared snakehead fish to the laundry and clean the mucus on the fish's body by rinsing it using running water. Then give rubbing ash on the surface of the fish if the mucus is still not gone. Giving rubbing ash will make fish slime easier to clean. For that, please clean the fish slime using rubbing ash evenly. Then, please rinse the fish again to remove the rubbing ash.
Finish cleaning the mucus on the fish's body, please continue by cleaning the fish's stomach by removing the fish innards. The trick, take a kitchen knife and cut the belly of the fish, then remove the fish innards using your hands if the stomach is open. After that, rinse the belly of the fish again with clean water to remove the dirt.
Then, clean the muzzle of the fish by cutting the muzzle of the fish with a knife and rinsing with water.
Then remove the scales on the fish's body in a terrible way using a spoon or knife evenly until all parts of the fish scales are cleaned evenly.
Then cut the fish to the size according to your taste. Here I cut it as much as 2-3 parts on each fish. But you can adjust it to your taste if you feel the piece is too big or too small.
Then please coat the fish with salt, pepper powder and lime juice evenly and let stand for about 15 minutes so that this seasoning seeps into it.
