I love cooking with fish head, you can always make an awesome dish from different cooking style.

If you enjoy fish head dishes like we do, why not check out the recipes for our Fish Head with Black Bean Sauce, Curry Fish Head, and many more!

This Braised fish head with gravy is a great option for those who do not eat spicy food like fish head curry. It is perfect as a one pot dish as it is packed with vegetables and the gravy can double up as soup, making it a nutritious and satisfying meal for the family. I decided not to deep fry the pieces of fish head to make it a healthier dish. Hope you enjoy this simple and easy to cook dish as much as we do. 😊
