ingredients

- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1⁄2 inch knob ginger, chopped

- peanut oil
directions
- Mince together the shallot or yellow onion, chili (if using), garlic and ginger.
- In a small bowl, combine fermented black beans, sugar, soy and sesame oil and stock. Mash beans with the back of a spoon to soften and break down.
- In a saute pan with a tight fitting lid, over medium heat, saute shallot/garlic mixture in a small amount of oil for 2-3 mins or until translucent.
- Add the black bean mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened. Add the wine and half the cilantro.

- Cook until fish flakes easily.
- Top with the remaining cilantro and green onion and serve over rice or quinoa.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in sunny So. Cal with my hubbie and two daughters. We live close to the beach and spend as much time there as possible- especially my husband who surfs as much as possible! We love to go camping, travel to Hawaii and hang out around the house with friends and neighbors (when I'm not shuttling kids here and there!) I enjoy cooking and have a passion for cookbooks, but since I found this website and allrecipes.com I can't find an excuse to buy any more!
