3. Tear fennel into small branches.

4. Mix sugar, salt and pepper evenly. Rub the surface of the fish fillet with brandy, and then rub a layer of sugar, salt, and pepper marinade.

5. Take a covered container, sprinkle some sugar, salt and pepper marinade on the bottom, put a fish fillet, sprinkle another layer of marinade on the fish fillet, and spread a layer of fennel branches and leaves.

6. Stack the other fish fillet on top of the fish fillet in the container, and sprinkle the remaining sugar salt pepper marinade and fennel on top.

7. Cover and refrigerate. (If you like a hard texture, you can put a heavy object on the fish fillet)

8. After two days (after 48 hours), take out the container and pour out the water produced in the container. Change the position of the fish steaks up and down, and then turn them over. Cover and return to the refrigerator.
