Fried Crispy Fish With Fragrant Soy Sauce

Another simple yet tasty fried fish with soy sauce.
The fish is crispy but not hard and the flesh is very fresh.  Served with fragrant light soy sauce, the fried fish is very yummy-yummy with rice and sambal belacan.

Kimmy, I love fish fried until crispy like this! I liek to eat it with sweet soya sauce mixed with chillies and sliced raw onions.

Hi Phong Hong, I totally forgot about the chillies. I think there was another spicy dish when I had this for dinner. Do you know that, my friend said I spoiled my hubby with all the food that I cooked. Shouldn't wives be cooking for my hubbies?

Hi Joyce, the sauce tasted just nice with the fried fish. Not too salty or sweet but fragrant.
