Beer Shrimp

While in China during my Seven Weeks in Tibet, one day on bikes ended at the cooking school. It was an optional activity, and I was tired, but I knew I had to do it for my fellow eGullet Society members.

• 200 g fish (firm white fish with skin on)
  
• 3 T peanut oil
  
• 1 tomato, chopped
  
• 1 red pepper, sliced
  
• 1 green pepper, sliced
  
• 2 T of sliced garlic tops or spring onion
  
• 25 g ginger, sliced
  
• 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  
• 2 T soy sauce
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1 c beer
  

Heat wok. Add oil and heat. Put fish into wok, skin side down. Put salt on top of fish and fry on each side for about 3 minutes or until skin is brown. Put all vegetables, garlic and ginger on top of fish. Add soy sauce and beer. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove lid to reduce liquid (approximately 2-3 minutes).
