For the first time, I am venturing into eating fresh petai. I usually ate the canned ones... :) The fresh petai beans are bitter.. much bitter than the canned ones, just like the bittergourd but with smell. However... its taste with the "ikan pusu/bilis" was incredible. I kind of addicted to it, so yeah, I certainly will make this dish again !
Ingredients:
250 gm dried silverfish- rinsed and drained
1 handful fresh petai
3 shallots-sliced
2 garlics-sliced
3 tbsp dried chilli paste
tamarind juice
salt and sugar to taste
3 dsp coconut milk
1 crushed lemon grass
steps:
1) heat oil in wok, add in the chilli paste, fry till the oil separates. Stir constantly
2) Add in the lemon grass, shallots and garlics. Fry till fragrant.
3) Add in the fish, petai, coconut milk, tamarind juice and seasoning, stir to combine and continue cooking till the silverfish cooked and the "sambal" is a bit dry.
