Crispy Gurame Fish with Zesty Salsa Sauce

Crispy Gurame with Salsa Sauce

Ingredients:

• 1 medium-sized gurame fish (also known as gourami)
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 green bell pepper
• 1 large onion
• 2 cloves garlic
• 4 shallots
• Tomato ketchup (to taste)
• Chili sauce (to taste)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 10 red chilies (finely ground)
• 1 lime
• Cooking oil
• 1 tomato
• 120 ml water

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Fish:
   Begin by cleaning the gurame fish thoroughly. Slice both sides of the fish to create wing-like flaps. Season with a bit of salt and squeeze over the juice of the lime. Let the fish marinate for a few minutes.

2. Fry the Fish:
   Heat oil in a pan until hot. Place the marinated gurame fish upright in the pan, allowing the wing-like sides to crisp up. Fry until golden and crispy. Once cooked, remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
