Postopek

Korak za korakom

1
Prepare the spice paste by blending the shallot, garlic, red chili, ginger, turmeric, toasted candlenuts, sliced lemongrass, salt, and sugar in a food processor or mortar and pestle until smooth.
Približno 10 min
Kuharjeva opomba: To soften banana leaves, quickly pass them over an open flame or dip them in hot water until pliable. This prevents them from cracking when folded.
2
Gently rub the spice paste all over the mackerel fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
Približno 5 min
Kuharjeva opomba: For deeper flavor, you can marinate the fish for 15-30 minutes, though it's not strictly necessary.
3
Lay out a softened banana leaf. Place one seasoned mackerel fillet in the center.
Približno 1 min
4
Top the fish with slices of tomato, basil leaves, sliced kaffir lime leaves, and optional whole bird's eye chilies and salam leaves.
Približno 2 min
5
Fold the banana leaf tightly around the fish and fillings to form a neat parcel. Secure the ends with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
Približno 4 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Ensure the parcel is sealed well to prevent steam from escaping during cooking, which helps keep the fish moist.
6
Repeat the process for the remaining fish fillets.
7
Arrange the banana leaf parcels in a steamer basket. Steam over medium heat for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flaky.
Približno 30 min
Kuharjeva opomba: The steaming time may vary slightly depending on the thickness of your fish fillets.
8
Carefully remove the parcels from the steamer. Serve directly in their banana leaf wrappers, opening them at the table.
Kuharjeva opomba: The banana leaf is for wrapping and infusing flavor, not for eating.
