Fried herring pieces

Overview

Stir-fried herring is a traditional dish in my hometown. Usually during the Chinese New Year, almost every household will cook this dish. In the old days when there were no refrigerators, fried fish could be stored for a longer time and was not easy to spoil. Of course, fried fish goes well with rice and wine or porridge, so everyone likes it.
