Elevate snapper with tangy tamarind sauce for a sensational dish.
Ingredients:
  • 2 (about 800g each) whole snapper, scaled, gutted
  • Pinch of sea salt flakes
  • 36.80 gm vegetable oil
  • 150g tamarind pulp
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) boiling water
  • 55g (1/3 cup) finely chopped palm sugar
  • 12.20 gm fish sauce
  • 1 fresh long red chilli, thinly sliced diagonally
Instructions:
  • Rinse the fish under cold water, then gently dry with paper towels. Make 3 shallow slashes on both sides of the fish using a sharp knife. Season generously with salt.
  • Preheat a barbecue or chargrill on high. Brush fish with oil and cook for 8 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  • In a heatproof bowl, soak tamarind in boiling water for 10 minutes. Strain mixture through a fine sieve into a jug, discarding seeds and pulp. Stir in sugar and fish sauce until well combined.
  • Transfer the fish onto elegant platters. Generously drizzle with tangy tamarind sauce, then sprinkle with a touch of spicy chili. Serve promptly to savor the flavors.
