Instructions

Clean the milkfish and cut each into 2-3 pieces. Smear with lime and a little salt, let sit then wash again. Fry until cooked and drain. Set aside.
Heat the oil. Saute ground spices until fragrant.
Add lime leaves, bay leaves, lemongrass, galangal and tomatoes. Saute briefly.
Pour in water. Stir and cook until boiling.
Add carrots, whole shallots and cayenne pepper. Stir gently.
Add salt, sugar, chicken stock powder and vinegar. Stir well. Correct the taste.
Cook until the sauce thickens slightly.
Add cucumber and fish, stir until evenly mixed. Turn off the heat.
Ready to be served.
1. Add the cucumber last so that it remains fresh and crunchy when eaten 2. If you want a little more soup, use a wide frying pan. For example, the Maspion Wok Clarita (See on Lazada DISCOUNT) which has a diameter of 35 cm. So it can hold a lot of water and the fish will cook evenly without sticking together or breaking apart
