   • Thinly slice the onion, shallots, and garlic.

3. Fry the Fish:

   • Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan and lightly fry the fish pieces. Be careful not to fry them too long; just until they change color. Once done, remove the fish from the pan and set it aside to drain.

4. Sauté the Aromatics:

   • In a separate pan, heat a small amount of oil. Add the sliced onion, shallots, and garlic. Sauté until fragrant and slightly wilted.

5. Combine Fish and Aromatics:

   • Add the fried fish to the pan with the sautéed aromatics. Stir gently to combine.

6. Add Sauces and Simmer:

   • Pour in a little water to the pan, followed by Saori oyster sauce, Indofood chili sauce, and sweet soy sauce. Stir everything together to ensure the fish and aromatics are well-coated with the sauces.
   • Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes, letting the flavors meld and the fish absorb the sauce.

7. Season to Taste:

   • There is no need to add salt, as the natural saltiness of the fish and the sauces will provide sufficient seasoning.

8. Serve:

   • Once the sauce has thickened and the fish is well-coated, remove from heat. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Cue Tongkol with Oyster Sauce.

Happy cooking! 🌹
