Claypot Drunken Fish

Though I love all types of fish, I seldom buy them unless I go to the local market… It is quite hard to get really fresh fish at the supermarket… Furthermore, I am often confused with the large selection out there so I normally stick to a few common ones that I can recognize… The recipe below is a healthy and easy way to cook fish like tilapia…
