I really enjoyed it but please look at the ingredients before cooking - it certainly won't be a 'crowd pleaser' and has a quite strong and distinctive taste. It serves one as a large dish, or two as an entree / light meal.
Ingredients:
180 g eel
1 teaspoon cornflour
1 teaspoon garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon gingerroot, crushed
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon black bean paste
1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 small onion, finely diced
Directions:
1. Cut eel into 2.5cm (1-inch) pieces and roll in cornflour.
2. Mix garlic, ginger, sesame oil, black bean paste and chili flakes in a small bowl along with two tablespoons of water.
3. Heat a wok until very hot.
4. Add mixture closely followed by eel pieces and stir-fry for one minute.
5. Add sherry, soy and onion and stir-fry around five minutes until eel is cooked.
6. Serve with plain steamed rice.
