Asam Pedas Nyonya Style

My hubby really really loves asam pedas..be it chicken, ikan pari, ikan merah or even beef..he's mad about asam pedas. I got a this recipe from a friend last week and tried it out and it turn out to be like this..

Habis nasi seperiuk kalau ada asam pedas..hahha

I used ikan merah for this one asam pedas recipe..




Here is the recipe:

Ingredient:

Ikan merah/ pari..or any fish that u like
Dried chili, ginger, onion (i seldom use shallot- malas nak kupas), garlic ,buah keras- blend together,
lemon grass,
turmeric powder,
daun kesum or i used to call it daun asam pedas ;-P
tamarind juice
oil
salt to taste
water

Cara-caranya:....different from Kedah style which we just boil everything

Heat oil in a pot (depends on the size of ur serving)
put the chillie paste and turmeric powder plus lemongrass and stir until it cook well..pecah minyak
pour in some tamarind juice..kacau lagi sikit
Mix some water, put the fish in together with daun kesum
Let it boil and add some salt
Serve with ikan kering or ikan masin goreng...
