Instructions

  1. Preparation of the Fish: Begin by thoroughly cleaning the Nila fish, then cut it into pieces as per your preference. Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the fish until golden brown, ensuring it is cooked through. Once done, remove the fish from the oil and let it drain on paper towels.

  2. Sautéing the Aromatics: While the fish is draining, take the time to finely slice all the aromatic ingredients: garlic, red onions, green chili peppers, and the small tomato. In a separate pan, heat a little oil and sauté the sliced ingredients until they are fragrant and the onions become translucent.

  3. Bringing It All Together: Add the fried Nila fish to the pan with the sautéed aromatics. Gently fold in the cempokak or rimbang, ensuring everything is well combined. Season the mixture with salt, Royco seasoning, and sweet soy sauce, then add a splash of water to help meld the flavors together.

  4. Final Touches: Stir everything together until the fish is evenly coated in the flavorful sauce. Allow the dish to simmer for a few minutes, letting the ingredients meld together and the flavors infuse. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

  5. Serving: Once the flavors are harmonized and the dish has thickened slightly, remove it from the heat. Serve hot, garnished with additional fresh green chili if desired, alongside steamed rice for a complete meal.

Conclusion

This Tumis Ikan Nila Ala 2 not only showcases the beautiful blend of spices and textures but also offers a delicious way to enjoy fish. It’s a dish that can easily become a staple in your kitchen, celebrated for its simplicity and burst of flavor. Enjoy your culinary creation! 😊
