Fish Head with spicy Fermented Black Bean

I have try this dish in a restaurant in a restaurant. and stumbled upon a similar recipe, made some amendment and came out this dish which my family enjoyed very much. The dish looks a bit dry as I add little water only. The gravy are all absorbed into the fish and make a fish very tasty.
