Prepare the Fish: Start by thoroughly cleaning the Gurame fish, then fry it in hot oil until crispy and golden brown. Once cooked, drain the fish on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
-
Make the Spice Paste: Blend the red curly chili peppers, red and green bird’s eye chili peppers, tomato, shallots, and garlic into a smooth paste.
-
Cook the Spices: In a skillet, heat a little oil and sauté the spice paste. Add just enough water to create a sauce, cooking until the mixture is fragrant and well combined.
-
Add Stink Beans: Incorporate the stink beans into the skillet, allowing them to soften slightly. Season with salt, sugar, and seasoning according to your taste preferences.
-
Serve: Once the stink beans are cooked through, spoon the sambal mixture generously over the fried Gurame fish on a serving plate. Enjoy the dish warm!
