The result is a subtle but wonderful happening of fishy, salty, sour, spicy, sweet flavours all at once. It reminds me of the delightful Sichuan-Chinese style of cooking that often fuses all these wonderful tast e sensations. I hope this is onethat will become a firm household favourite and if you don't eat pork, use a firm-fleshed fish such as cod or halibut instead. *Note: Preparation time does not include marinating.
