Steps

1. Prepare the Stingray:

   • Cut the smoked stingray into desired pieces.

2. Prepare the Spice Paste:

   • Season with salt, sugar, and pepper according to your taste.

4. Combine and Cook:

   • Add the smoked stingray pieces into the pan.
   • Stir well until the spice paste evenly coats the stingray pieces.

5. Finish and Serve:

   • Cook until the flavors meld together and the stingray is heated through.
   • Once done, transfer to a serving plate.

6. Enjoy:

   • Serve hot and enjoy your Sambal Ikan Salai Pari!
