Yummy Promfret Steamboat

One of my favourites of all time is soupy food. Moi is contented having soupy food anytime..so its no surprise that "Fishhead Steamboat" is one of my fav casual-can eat-veri often kinda comfort food. There is a rather good stall at the Tampines Round Market that sells decent "Fishhead Steamboat". We pop by quite often for the steamboat.My favourite is the promfret steamboat. The fish is sliced into thin sashimi-like slices for you to add into the boiling hotpot. The fish bones are thrown in way before by the cook to richen up the broth.
Broth with veg, fried yam and fish bones

Fresh Promfret slices for cooking in the hotpot

The steamboat itself ranges from $25 to $35 and onwards. I guess the price diff is for the size of the fish. The soup base is sweet with the essence from the fish bones, fried yam , vegs and wat nots that the vendor throws in. The fish broth gets sweeter as you add in the fish slices and there's unlimited top up of the precooked broth . Hee hee, one of my fav hawker centre meals.. I can have many bowls of the soup.
