PEPES IKAN WOKU IN HERBAL CURRY, WRAP WITH BANANA LEAVES

Today i feel like to eat something fishy and spicy so i try to modify the way how to cook Pepes but in different ways. So here my recipe for Pepes Ikan Woku ( It can be translated as Steamed Fish with Woku Spices in Banana Leaves ). This time I use Bonito fish, but you can use any type of fish you like .

Ingredient

(850) Bonito

lime, extract juice

6 tablespoons

oil

kaffir lime leaves, thinly sliced

turmeric leaf, thinly sliced

pandanus leaf, thinly sliced

1 teaspoon

cumin (if available use the leaves and thinly sliced)

spring onions, coarsley chopped

30 grams

lemon basil leaves (optional)

red chillies

bird's eye chillies (use less if you prefer)

2 cm

turmeric, chopped

2 cm

2-3

tomatoes

candlenuts, roasted

2 tablespoon

thinly sliced lemon grass

1 tablespoon

salt

1 teaspoon

sugar (optional)

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Clean and was fish. Rub with lime juice and let it stand for about 10 minutes.

* Step 2

Mix all the spices ground with salt and sugar. Rub it on the Fish.

* Step 3

Wrap the spiced fish with banana leaves and tie both ends. Grill over hot charcoal or bake in oven until cooked.

* Step 4

Note: if you dont have banana leaves, you can use aluminum foil to wrap it.

* Step 5

Another way to cook is saute the ground spices, kaffir lime leaves, turmeric leaves, pandanus leaves with oil until fragrant. Add the water and bring to the boil. Toss in the Fish and continue to cook over low heat. And cumin and spring onions. Simmer until cooked. When the sauce is completely absorbed, adjust seasoning if necessary then add lemon basil leaves. Remove from heat and serve with Rice or any dish you like.
