Next, add water to the skillet and incorporate the blimbing wuluh, which should be prepped and cut as desired.
-
Allow the mixture to cook for a few moments, then taste the broth. Adjust the seasoning by adding sugar, salt, and seasoning to achieve the desired flavor.

Gently introduce the bandeng pieces into the broth, being careful not to overcook them to prevent the fish from disintegrating.
