Braised hairtail with fern
This is a Hakka dish I learned from my mother-in-law. She said that if they wanted to eat seafood there, they would almost only have hairtail. Why would they use bracken to cook it? Because bracken are everywhere in the mountains, and hairtail can be eaten with rice. They used to be poor, so they had this dish. Hehe, I see. I also try this braised hairtail with fern to see what it tastes like.
