Billfish is a freshwater fish with a delicious taste and tender flesh, and it can be cooked in a variety of ways, such as frying, frying, grilling or stewing. Here's a simple and delicious way to make billfish:

Salt and pepper (to taste).
Cooking wine (to taste).
Light soy sauce (to taste).
Starch (about one scoop).
Cooking oil (for frying fish).
Fish handling: Wipe the cleaned billfish dry with a paper towel and cut two knives on both sides of the fish to make it easier to absorb the flavor.
Marinate the fish: Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on the cuts on both sides of the fish and add a little cooking wine to marinate for about 15-20 minutes.
Pan-fried billfish: Heat an appropriate amount of cooking oil in a frying pan until it is slightly hot.
Put the marinated billfish evenly into the pan and fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides. The time to fry fish depends on the size of the fish, generally about 3-5 minutes per side.
After frying, remove and drain the excess oil and set aside.
Stir-fry ingredients: Take another pot, pour in a little cooking oil, add ginger slices, minced garlic, and green onions, and stir-fry until fragrant.
Place the fried billfish in the pan with the sautéed ingredients.
Add a little light soy sauce, an appropriate amount of cooking wine, an appropriate amount of water (or stock) to the pot, and then sprinkle a small amount of starch to thicken it to make a delicious sauce.
Cook the fish until the soup is thickened, the fish is covered with aroma, and the flavor can be taken out of the pot.
Garnish: Take out the stewed billfish, arrange it and sprinkle with a little chopped green onion or coriander as a garnish to add beauty.
