Ingredients

 
Salt
 
1 12 oz.-1 lb. eel
 
Pinch Ve-Tsin
 
1 teaspoon ginger sherry
 
1 rounded teaspoon cornflour peanut oil
 
2 finely chopped thin slices fresh ginger
 
1 crushed clove garlic
 
4 tablespoons hot chicken stock
 
3 oz. skinned roasted peanuts

Directions

Rub 2-3 teaspoons salt well into the eel and leave to rest for 1-2 minutes.
This will get rid of the viscous coating.
Wash well.
Cut down the belly and clean the eel.
Wash again and dry.
Cut the eel into 1-inch slices across the bone.
Work into them a pinch of salt and a pinch of Ve-Tsin and the ginger sherry then rub them through the cornflour.
Have enough oil to deep fry heated to 385°F. or 196°C. or to the stage when a slice of raw potato or onion dropped into it rests for a few seconds then rises to the surface.
Fry the pieces of eel in it for 3 minutes.
Lift out and drain well.
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a frying-pan.
Add the ginger and garlic.
Cook until the garlic is golden and then discard it.
Add the pieces of eel, hot stock and peanuts.
Cover and cook for 4 minutes at a high heat.
If necessary, add a little more stock, but only a little sauce is needed for this dish.
