1. Material preparation
1
1. Prepare a slaughtered grass carp, preferably 2-3 pounds, which is more suitable for the pot. If the pot is small, cut the grass carp into two pieces and use a knife to score several 1-2 cm deep lines on the fish. You can marinate it with salt for half an hour or not, depending on your taste.

2. Prepare oil, aniseed, onions, ginger, garlic, cooking wine and other ingredients. Prepare a clean pot. It is best to drain the water. If there are water droplets, heat it until there are no water droplets before pouring the oil in, otherwise it will easily splash. The main function of cooking wine is to remove fishy smell.

3. Wash the mushrooms, break them into pieces and place them in a bowl. This step can be done while the fish is cooking to shorten the cooking time, or you can do it now to avoid being in a hurry later.

4. Wash the coriander and cut it into a bowl and set aside. If you don’t like the taste of coriander, you can leave it out. This step can also be placed later to make reasonable use of time.

2. Start to cook
1
1. Add oil first, wait until the oil is hot, then add Aniseed ingredients are easy to taste when fried. Then add the onion, ginger, and garlic, and let out the aroma of the onion, ginger, and garlic. Be careful not to make the fire too hot, otherwise the onion, ginger, and garlic will easily become muddy.

2. Add the fish and fry repeatedly until all the wounds on the body are opened. The purpose of this is to facilitate the cooking of the fish's nutrients and make the soup richer.
3
3. Pour in cold water. Note that the water must be cold and poured onto the fish slowly. In this case, the fish soup will be richer and usually turn milky white, which is very appetizing. If you use boiling water, the effect may not be good.

4. Wait for the water to boil. At this time, you can turn on the high heat to shorten the cooking time without affecting the fish. If the shiitake mushrooms are not done yet, you can get the shiitake mushrooms. You can also get cilantro. When the water boils, turn down the heat, because if the fire is too high, the water will boil too much and the fish will be easily cooked. One is that it doesn't look good, and the other is that it is afraid that fish bones will fall into the soup and cause danger.

6. After about 4 minutes, you can add the mushrooms. Pour in the mushrooms directly. If the fish has not been marinated, you can add cooking wine and salt at this time. The reason why we add table salt now is because if the table salt is cooked for too long, it is not good for the human body.

3. Remove from the pan
Cook for about 8 minutes and the fish will be cooked. At this time, add the coriander and simmer it for a while to blend the flavor of the coriander with the fish soup. You can taste the fish soup, and if it tastes too heavy, you can add more salt. But it is recommended not to eat too salty, as it is not good for your health.
One way to eat it is to serve the fish directly with the soup. You can also scoop out the fish and use the remaining soup to cook noodles, or add an egg to make it more delicious.

Notes
If it is not marinated, the fish will be very tender and fresh, but not salty. It can be eaten with soup and it will be very delicious. .
If you like it spicy, you can add chili pepper together with the ingredients. If you like it sour, you can add appropriate vinegar when adding cooking wine.
