Tea-Smoked Fish Slices
A delicious way to smoke fish. Do not use too high a heat, or rice and tea will char too fast, giving a burnt smell rather
than a smoked one.
Wash the fish and pat dry inside and out with paper towels. Mix together marinade ingredients and marinate fish for a
few hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
Fill the lower part of the Smoker-Cooker with about 3 inches of water. Bring the water to a rolling boil, place the fish on
the meat rack and cover pan with lid. Steam the fish for 45 minutes, keeping the water at a boil and replenishing it as it
boils away. After cooking, remove steamed fish and wash out smoker pan.
Place the smoking mixture ingredients into the bottom of the smoker pan. Put drip pan into bottom of smoker pan, then
put meat rack onto drip pan. Put the steamed fish pieces on meat rack. Cover smoker pan with the heavy hand-cast lid.
Place smoker pan directly on stove top and heat at medium. After you detect smoke, smoke the fish for 20 to 25 minutes.
Turn off the heat and let the smoke subside, about 5 minutes. The fish should be a rich, golden brown on the outside.
Serve with white rice.
