We’re OBSESSED with Sichuan Spicy Fish Hot Pot! Szechuan Chong Qing Grilled Fish 重庆烤鱼 Chinese Recipe

Singaporean cuisine is multi-faceted because of cultural influences. While a majority of Singaporeans are Chinese, we also have Malay, Indian and Eurasian ethnic groups. We’ve been taught since young to embrace racial diversity and maintain social harmony. This is not only evident in our language - Singlish, which is a variety of English spoken in Singapore, incorporating elements of Chinese and Malay, but also the food that we eat. Spicy food is rather common in Singapore so when Sichuan cuisine is brought over to our shore, they immediately became a hit. Almost all the coffeeshops or foodcourts in Singapore these days have at least one stall selling Sichuan food. Sichuan (Szechuan or sometimes spelt as Schezwan) food has a unique bold and lip-numbing spiciness in most of their dishes because of the liberal use of garlic, Sichuan peppercorns and other spices. One of their most popular dishes is this Spicy Fish Hot Pot or Chong Qing Grilled Fish. The soup base of this dish is good to go with rice and noodles.
