Lately hypermarkets have been selling Ikan Siakap(Seabass) at a very cheap price. Bought two the other day for less than RM10.
Mamarazzi really loves the Thai Style Steamed Fish that we had at Restaurant Khunthai. Papa said that the dish is very easy to cook lah . Well.....that was what he did with the Siakap that we bought.
Ingredients :
- 3to 4 small onions . Can cut rings or just dump the whole onions in
-3 stalks of lemongrass(Crushed)
-1 stalk of bunga kantan( Torch Ginger/ Ginger Flower)
-zest from 1 lime
-juice from 1 lime
-4 to 5 kaffir leaves
- cilantro for decoration
- a pinch of salt
- a pinch of Knozz Ikan Bilis
- Cili Padi(Bird's eye chili-optional)
Method :
Boil the onions, lemongrass, bunga kantan, lime zest, kaffir leaves, salt and knozz ikan bilis in a saucepan. Wait till lyou can smell the lovely aroma coming from the pan; then you can add in the fish. Boil till the fish is fully cooked.
Just before served add in the lime juice and half a packet of NuStevia White Stevia Powder .Gotta love this NuStevia White Stevia powder. Not only that it contains zero sugar but it's also gluten free and does not contain any animal or by-products.
Tada! Simple and fast Thai Style Fish . The Stevia Powder really added taste to the while dish. Yum!....
Long beans from Mamarazzi's garden
Made into omelet. MMmm.....just nice... All done. Can beat dinner in a restaurant leh? All in....less than RM10.
It all looks very good! I must say I have never heard of putting some kind of sugar in fish, so I would LOVE to taste it and see how it changes it.
ReplyDeleteUsually if cook tomyam or this soup will need to add a pinch of sugar. :)
DeleteNice photos! I love omelets. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda
DeleteNice! I've seen this NuStevia product too! :)
ReplyDeleteTried the chocolate NuStevia and it tasted really interesting. I like how stevia is sweeter than regular sugar but without the unhealthy effects.
Yup....planning to buy Stevia plants to plant too
DeleteWow nice sharing.. I also like Thai style steamed fish but I always think Thai cooking is complicated using lots of spices and ingredients.. But your recipe looks ok can follow la hehe . Oohhh taukok chin tan, nice.. I also always cook one other than the regular tai choong chin tan..
ReplyDeleteNi pakai hentam punya cara
DeleteWahhhhhh!!!! Papa can cook so well, looks really good. Better than mama? They say never trust a skinny cook. Hehehehehehehe!!!! The egg looks so so so good, compliments to the chef.

DeleteI also use Equal Stevia in my drinks but have heard many people say that this stevia sugar substitute is not good for us (it was once banned by FDA in the US). Don't know who is right or wrong with this stevia controversy :(
ReplyDeletenah ....dont think it's banned by FDA la else they wont be selling it . anyway...it made from natural products.
DeleteVery delicious. Can beat the restaurants!!
