Preparation

Step 1

In small bowl, combine wine, stock, fermented sweet rice, soy sauce and sugar; stir until sugar is dissolved.

For the Dish: Soak cloud ears in warm water to cover until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain and squeeze out excess water.

Place a wok over high heat until hot. Add oil, swirling to coat sides. Add fish fillets and sear them for 30 seconds per side. Remove fish and place on a plate.

To wok, add green onions and ginger; cook, stirring until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cloud ears and bamboo shoots and stir-fry for 1 minute. Return fish to wok, pour in sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until fish begins to flake and the center is opaque about 5 minutes. Add cornstarch solution; cook, stirring lightly, until sauce boils and thickens. Spoon fish and sauce onto a serving plate and garnish with the sliced green onions.
