The 1st time I tried this spicy, sweet & sour fish was at a Zhi-char (煮炒) stall near my home. Zhi-char stall is a modest stall that’s found in coffeeshops where Chinese home-style dishes are cooked to your order.

After that, I knew I had to try making this at home. And I did it, with just one attempt! Hooray! Hubby was full of praise; what more do I need…

Since it was my 1st attempt, I bought some cheap chilli paste to experiment with in case I don’t succeed :)

Thai Heritage Sweet Chilli Sauce (S$1+), Holly Farms Sambal Tom Yam (S$3+). If you can’t find these brands, you can use any brand of sauces that is a little spicy & sweet + tom yam paste.

Now, I’m gonna show you how you can cook this too, in under S$10 & you don’t need to be a pro to do this.

Инструкции

  1. Remove scales & inards from fish if it's not done for you. Rinse & set aside.
  2. Slice off the top & end of Okras. Cut Okras into halves & Tomatoes into wedges. Slice Pineapple into cubes.
  3. Squeeze lime into chilli paste (tom yum + sweet sauce). Throw in the lime skin as well & mix well.
  4. Heat oil. Add chilli mix, vegetables & stir-fry. Add water, cover & simmer for about 1 min.
  5. Add pineapples & water. Simmer for another minute. Put in fish & let it simmer for about 5-7 mins. Do not overcook or fish will not be tender.
  6. Insert toothpick into fish. Fish is cooked if toothpick pierces through easily. Dish out your fish & place the serving plate on a warmer to retain its temperature. Drizzle the sauce over a plate of fragrant rice & enjoy. You'll never get enough of this Thai-style Seabass!

    Does the coconut oil taste of coconut? If not, can you suggest a substitute, if so, how strongly does it taste? Can I use coconut creme or extract to flavor the dish? I live in the boonies and it's difficult to acquire international ingredients.

      Thank u for trying this dish, Danny! There's no coconut used in this recipe. You can use any cooking oil & even Olive oil if you like. This is not a curry dish, so you don't need coconut at all. You can visit my blog for photo instructions :) Happy cooking!

        Thank you for clearing up my confusion. I saw coconut oil and thought there might be a flavor component to it. One other thing is there a substitute for Tom Yam paste or can I make it myself? I looked it up online and the shipping costs were nuts!

          You must've misread cooking oil for coconut oil. I'm quite sure you can buy Tom yum from Chinatown. Else, add any chlli paste & lemon grass & put 4 lime leaves instead of just 2. If you can find, add Galangal (blue ginger), fish sauce to it.

            Well don't I feel foolish! I guess I saw the Thai title and my eyes automatically read coconut oil when scanning the ingredients. Oops!
