Ikan Cili Garam is a Nyonya-style fried or baked fish with chilli paste. This fish dish may look simple but do not underestimate its amazing taste.

If you have not tasted this before, you are definitely missing out a lot indeed. The fish is usually deep-fried to ensure its crispiness. I find that to be too oily for my liking.

I found a simpler method which is less oily but still preserves the crispiness of the fish. Baking the fish ensures you to achieve both. As the fish bakes in the oven, you can start preparing the chilli paste which is the highlight of the dish. This chilli paste makes any dull fried or baked fish “come to life”. It brings the taste up a notch and makes the dish amazingly appetizing.

You may add some calamansi juice for to further enhance the taste of this dish. The best part when having this is mixing plain white rice with the leftover chilli paste. You know you need more!
