Fish with salted black beans is one of the Asian fish recipes that I enjoy for a couple of reasons: it is quick and easy to prepare; and it really tastes awesome – even when eaten with plain white rice. This fish recipe is perfect for lent and for people who love to eat fish most of the time.

You can use any type of fish fillet with white meat for this recipe. I usually get whatever frozen fish fillet that is on sale from my local grocer. I do not recommend salmon or tuna for this recipe as both have empowering taste that can affect the overall flavor of the dish. Try mahi-mahi, cod, tilapia, or even cream dory.

In order to balance the taste of the black beans (since it is very salty), I soak it in warm water before cooking. It will really be nice if you have all the ingredients ready because each has its own contribution that makes this dish perfect.

      Ritz, Red wine is not a good substitute. You can use Chinese cooking wine though.
