Anchovies in Tomato Sauce

Anchovies in Tomato Sauce

Overview

In the past few years, every Chinese New Year, a good classmate would give me a large box of organic specialties from Huangshan, Anhui, such as fungus, shiitake mushrooms, chicken matsutake, etc. This time, the box actually came with a large package of dried anchovies and small fish; seeing this reminded me of the dried fish with tomato sauce that is often sold in the braised vegetables restaurant here: it is crispy and crispy. Dried fish wrapped in sour and sweet tomato sauce is delicious, and it is an absolute must-have with wine. I remember when I was a child and there was no time to make it at home, my family would ask us to buy a small bag and bring it back to my dad to drink. And when we were walking around, we would pick one with our hands from time to time and quickly put it into our mouths to satisfy our cravings~~~ The guy who opened the package was surprised to see this package of dried fish, because he liked this one, so he wanted to tear it open and fry it that day, but I quickly stopped him. Haha, it’s not that I didn’t want to give it to him, but I wanted to make a recipe. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to make it, so that guy said every day: Hey, it’s a shame that I’m not a greedy cat, otherwise I would have to starve to death when I eat your dried fish~~~
