This weekend I enjoyed a catfish meal that my roommate fished in the reservoir. This one was a real big size catfish that I’ve ever seen. It was almost one meter long and 40 pounds. What a big buster it is! We discussed how to cook it and who could cook it. The result was that we cut the fish first and then cooked the fish individually. That sounds a good idea, right? By the way, I really like eating fish and then have the fish soup.
We began to divide it and cooked it; he cooked it in a traditional way of the north of China: First, putting some oil into a big frying pan, and then, putting the fish in it and taking it off after a few minutes. Second, putting vinegar, soy source, sugar, salt, chopped garlic together in a bowl and mix them. Then pouring this source on to the fish and boiling this. However, I cooked this fish from a traditional way of south of China, that was also an easy way to cook it. I put fish, water, ginger, and bean sprout, prickly ash which is a seed of a Chinese southern plant, Chinese red pepper and vegetables together into a big stew pan and boiling it.
Different people from different part of China have different way to cook fish. We cooked it from different ways but both of ours have good taste.

Thats interesting.
I have been catching, cooking and eating fish my whole life i have never thought og trying it that way maybe i will next time.
i am glad that yall had fun cooking the fish.
That is an interesting way to cook catfish. The only way I have ever eaten catfish is deep fried with plenty of hush puppies to go with it. Any way you cook it has got to be better than that catfish that was in the caf the other day...haha
Oh man, you're making me hungry! Hah hah... I'll have to write down the recipes, though. They sound pretty good! :D
