First, rub the fish segments with wine, salt, and vinegar for a moment.
Add a little oil to the pot, heat up and sauté with scallions and ginger;
Add 300g of water, bring to a boil, add the fish segments, add doubanjiang (fermented broad bean paste), old soy sauce, and chili oil, simmer over low heat for 20 minutes, add cilantro and garlic puree before serving and plating.
