♥...Fried Spanish Mackerel / Ikan Tenggiri Goreng...♥

This is how I'd enjoy fried fishes. You may substitute the Spanish Mackerel with any fishes of your choice. Pomfret is good too...

1. In a large bowl, mix ingredients marked * until it forms a paste. Add more water if it's too thick. 
2. Place the fish blocks in the bowl and mix together with the paste. Leave it aside for 1 hour.
3. Heat oil in wok and deep fry the marinated fish blocks. ( I prefer deep frying. You may also fry using little oil ) 
4. Turn over the fish blocks once awhile. Once cooked, rest on paper towel before arranging on a serving plate.
5. Leave about 2 tbsps oil in wok. Stir fry the onion, dried chilli and curry leaves until fragrant for 2 minutes over low heat.
