Directions
If you are using fresh fish, rinse it thoroughly and dry it. There is no need to remove the scales, fins, tail or head if the fish is small.
If you are using sun-dried fish, you must soak it in hot water for 30 minutes to soften it, as it is too tough.
Finely chop the onions, the tomatoes and the small green chilies.
Chop the coriander leaves.
Pour the oil into a large frying pan and heat it.
When the oil is hot, fry the fish until crispy.
Pour them into a bowl.
In another pan, heat the oil.
When the oil is hot, add the onions.
When the onions are translucent, add the garlic paste, the ginger paste, the tomatoes, the small green chilies, the salt, the red chili powder, the coriander powder and the cumin powder.
Cook over low heat until the tomatoes are tender. Stir regularly.
Once the mixture is ready, pour it into the bowl containing the fried fish. Add the lemon juice and mix well.
Garnish with coriander leaves.
Ready! Enjoy the pickles with dal baht or other dishes.
