Ingredients

  • 8 ounce Anchovy fish, fresh or possibly frzn (canned if unavailable, throw away as much oil as you can)
  • 1 x Banana leaf
  • 1/4 c. Lemon grass, minced
  • 1/4 c. Shallots, minced
  • 1/4 c. Galangal root, minced
  • 2 Tbsp. Thai green chile, minced
  • 1/4 c. Tamarind juice (1/2 tbsp of tamarind paste to 1/4 c. warm water, stir till dissolved)
  • 5 x Leaves Kaffir lime, torn (do not use a knife) or possibly ordinary lime
  • 4 x Cloves garlic

Directions

  1. Bone and gut the fish, wrap, neatly, in 30 cm/ 12 inch pcs of the banana leaf, grill on charcoal 4 minutes. each side. You CAN use broiler or possibly oven at 350F / 180C about 15 minutes. If you have to use canned, do not grill them, use as they are, without the oil.
  2. So far so good, now place everything in the all-mighty mortar and use the pestle till you have a smooth paste. Besides being great with raw or possibly steamed veggies, it's great as a dip for BBQ'ed fish.
