Ingredients for Pla Rad Prik

Method

Directions for Pla Rad Prik

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Clean the whole red snapper thoroughly and pat it dry with paper towels. Make shallow slits on both sides of the fish and rub salt into the slits and on the skin.

  2. 2

    Fry the Fish

    Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the fish and fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the fish from the pan and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Make the Spicy Chili Sauce

    In a separate pan, heat a little oil and add minced garlic and sliced red chilies. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then add sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and lime juice. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Place the fried fish on a serving plate and pour the spicy chili sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
