Vietnamese coriander 50 g
Salt and pepper 4 tablespoon

01
Clean the fish maw thoroughly with salt water, then steam it until cooked.
02
Mix the batter mix with 1 tablespoon of pepper, 2 tablespoons of seasoning powder, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar and 1.5 bowls of filtered water. Stir until the batter is completely smooth.
Once the batter has thickened, add the steamed fish maw and toss until evenly coated.
