Steamed fish with chopped pepper and tofu

Overview

These are the two largest pieces of the two kilograms of mackerel I bought for 10 yuan. I specially saved them for my father’s birthday last Saturday. I made steamed fish with chopped pepper and tofu. It is a very festive and auspicious dish, with red flowers and green willows, and fried golden and fragrant tofu. It is healthy and nutritious with less oil. The tofu is placed under the fish, absorbing the delicious taste of the fish. The homemade chopped chili is neither spicy nor salty, but has a rich garlic flavor. Both parents like it.
