Ikan Keli Goreng Tempoyak

This time I’m gonna share with you readers the dish that I’ve tried today. The original recipe (which I got from MyRecipe website) is using the kembung fish but since there are some catfish in my freezer ( and didnt fancy kembung that much), I’ve decided to divert a lil bit from the recipe. Anyway, catfish and tempoyak is quite a good combination, I would say.

.

Ok then, here’s the recipe :

.

4 cat fish

2 pcs bunga kantan, cut into 4

2 stalks lemon grass, smashed

1 bombay onion – sliced

1 pc tumeric leaf

1/2 cup of peeled petai seeds
.

Spices (ground)

2 garlics

20 bird’s eye chilies

1 cm tumeric

2 tbsp tempoyak
.

How To

- Mix the fish with tumeric powder & salt – deep fry (but not too dry).

- Heat oil & fry the spices & lemon grass till fragrant.

- Put in the petai seeds & bunga kantan.

- Then, put in 1 cup of plain water & wait till it simmers.

- Add the fish, salt & sugar to taste.

- Finally put in the tumeric leaf & onion.

- If you dont like it to be too dry, add more water to your likings.
