Sarawakian Local Delights : Deep Fried Fish



Deep fried river fish is a common dish in many longhouses in the evening. A farmer on his way home from the rice fields, may easily net a small pail of river fish.

One of the easier ways of cooking fish is deep frying them.

The salty fish, sometimes with scales still on, when deep fried, is very crunchy and tasty. Often they may form the only protein for the family for a few days.

The family dinner may include a sambal and a salad of cucumber.

The fried fish can be heated up in the kuali or placed on top of a smouldering wood fire the next day in the farm. And that will be a good lunch for the family.
