Stewed conger eel with pork belly and mustard greens

My hometown is close to the sea, so I eat a lot of aquatic products. There are many kinds of aquatic products, and they all have unique ways of making them in our hometown. Just like roasted pork with dried vegetables, roasted fish with dried vegetables, or roasted fish with pork belly, etc. What I’m cooking today is braised conger eel with pork belly and mustard greens. The combination of dried vegetables and pork belly, the fat but not greasy aroma, plus the freshness of sea eel, it is really a delicious dish that cannot be missed!

【Conger eel pickles】

Ma carp (conger eel) is relatively large in size. It is common for one weighing 20-30 kilograms in the market, and some people have seen one weighing hundreds of kilograms. When buying, it depends on how many people are in the family. The price varies depending on the location. The part with spring (roe) is usually more expensive. If you buy hemp fish home, a common way in Chaoshan is to stew it with pickles. Teacher Zhang Xinmin's book "Chaozhou Cuisine World" mentions this fish pickle with spring. The article also mentions that this dish is a local Chaoshan dish. If you order a Chaoshan fisherman's fish pickle outside, if it lacks the white fish spring in it, the dish cannot be called authentic. I love fish and am not too afraid of fishy smell, but I think this mackerel has a strong fishy smell, so it is very suitable to be stewed with pickles. The mackerel absorbs the sourness of the pickles, plus the unique sourness of tomatoes, which not only removes the fishy smell, but also highlights the freshness of the eel. If you don't like tomatoes, add celery and cook it together for a different flavor.
