Sweet and Spicy Bawal Fish Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 500 grams of Bawal Fish
  • 3 tablespoons vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons salt

For the Sauce:

  • 1/2 large onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 10 green bird’s eye chilies (cabe rawit hijau) or domba chilies
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon (Royco)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Fish:

    • Begin by cleaning the Bawal fish thoroughly. Rub the fish with vinegar and salt. Allow it to marinate for 15 minutes to infuse the flavors and tenderize the fish.
    • After marinating, rinse the fish under cold water to remove any excess salt and vinegar.
  2. Fry the Fish:

    • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the fish in the pan and fry until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish and set aside.
  3. Make the Sauce:

    • Finely chop the large onion and garlic cloves.
    • In a separate pan, heat a little oil and sauté the chopped onion and garlic until fragrant and translucent.
    • Add the tomato sauce, chili sauce, and oyster sauce to the pan. Stir to combine the ingredients.
    • Slice the green chilies and add them to the sauce mixture.
    • Season the sauce with chicken bouillon, black pepper, and sugar. Stir well and let the sauce simmer until it thickens slightly. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  4. Combine and Serve:

    • Pour the prepared sauce over the fried Bawal fish, ensuring the fish is well coated.
    • Serve immediately while hot.
