      Title: WHITE FISH FILETS IN BEAN SAUCE
 Categories: Chinese, Seafood
      Yield: 4 servings
 
    1/2 lb Fish filets (soft flesh fish
           -like sole)
    1/2 c  Dry sherry
      1 ts Sugar
    1/2 ts Thin soy sauce
    1/2 ts Fresh ginger, minced
      1 tb Cloud Ear black fungus (or
           -water chestnuts)
    2/3 c  Chicken stock
    1/2 ts Szechwan Soybean Paste
      1 ts Cornstarch paste (approx)
    1/2 ts Sesame oil
 
  Cook this dish quickly so fish will be flaky and
  tender.
  
  Preparation:  Wash and soak Cloud Ear fungus for about
  30 minutes or until soft; drain.  Slice fish filets
  into 2" squares; marinate in sherry, sugar and soy
  sauce for 15 minutes.  Mix stock and soybean paste;
  add in half the marinade when fish is removed.
  
  Cooking:  Heat wok to high.  Add stock mixture; when
  it comes to slow boil, add ginger and Cloud Ear
  fungus; cook fungus for about 1 minute. Dribble in
  cornstarch paste; keep stirring as you do; sauce
  should attain a medium consistency.  Allow sauce to
  cook for another minute. Reduce heat to medium, then
  introduce fish pieces.  Poach for about 1 minute or
  until flaky and milky white.  Avoid overcooking.  Stir
  in sesame oil. Serve.
  
  Variation:  Use thinly sliced water chestnuts in place
  of Cloud Ear black fungus; garnish with minced green
  onion.
