Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Fish maw (dried fish bladder) is an excellent source of collagen. It is usually served in soup together with prawn/pork meatballs, cabbage and carrots during festivities like Chinese New Year and weddings. For this recipe, only the “Saute” function is used to cook this dish with my Instant Pot Duo Plus, an Electric Pressure Multi-Use Programmable Cooker.

Watch my video and see how I cooked this dish with the Instant Pot Duo Plus, now available in Singapore.
