Simple Recipe - Otak-otak Fish

One of my favorite, Otak-otak fish and my whole family love it if I cook with Stingray.

If you want a quick meal, this is very easy as just need steam 15 minutes.



Use this measurememt for 2 plates of steam otak-otak:

Mix all these together:
18 tbls blended chili paste*O 
100ml thick coconut milk (santan)
Shrimp paste (Belacan) approx. 1/2"
8 candlenut (buah keras) (crush into paste or blend with cili paste)
2.5 teaspoon salt
3 tblspoon  rice flour
8 kafir lime leaves finely shredded
2 eggs

Lay the fish on plate, scoop the above mixture to cover the fish. Steam 15 minutes.

* Blended chili
8 small onions
5 garlic
Medium bowl of dried chillies (soaked with hot water)
2 Lemongrass
1/2" of tumeric
Add some water and blend

Note: You may use box coconut milk normally comes in 200ml packing

I normally blend a bottle of chili paste to be used anytime, so whenever needed shrimp paste or candlenut, i just add in separately.

For this you can actually blend the required chili together with shrimp paste and candlenut.
