Ingredients needed for the dish.

Marinate fish

Wash the fish thoroughly, gut it, drain it, arrange it on a plate, and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of lemon juice on the surface. Gently place the crushed lemongrass pieces into the fish's belly. Then use a knife to lightly score the sides of the fish so that the fish absorbs the spices.

Put in a cup 1/2 teaspoon of tapioca starch, 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder, all the chopped lemongrass, 1/2 chopped chili and 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic, mix this spice mixture evenly on both sides of the fish, marinate for 10 minutes.

Adding lemon juice to the fish will help remove the fishy smell and make the fish taste better after frying.

Fried fish

Place the pan on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, wait for the oil to heat up, then add 1 tablespoon of minced onion and garlic, then add the fish and fry until golden brown on both sides.

After about 7 minutes of frying, gently flip the fish. When the fish is golden brown on both sides, turn off the heat and remove the fish to a plate.

Do not overcook the fish or it will fall apart. Instead, tilt the pan so that the oil covers the surface of the fish.

Make dipping sauce

To make the dipping sauce, add 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and minced chili and mix well. The fish has a crispy crust, well-seasoned, while the inside retains a rich, fatty flavor. Served with homemade sauce.
