directions

  • Seasoning: mix lemongrass, chili pepper, tumeric powder & chicken bouillon together.
  • Cut a few lines on the surface of snapper: this will help the snapper absorbs the seasoning easier.
  • Apply the above season all over snapper. Leave it from 15-30 minutes The more you leave, the taste will be great.
  • Heat the pan, pour the oil. Leave it few minutes until the oil turns hot. Put the snapper into the pan, after 5 minutes, turn to another side for another 5 minutes. Reduce hit to medium, check it often to make sure it is not burning. Depends on the side of snapper, fry it within 15-20 minutes or until completely cooked.
  • Serve with white rice.
  • NOTE: I prefer to use fresh lemongrass as it is strong smell & taste. The frozen lemongrass will not bring to you the authentic taste & smell of this dish. - I always use chicken bouillon to season all my foods as it does not make your food salty like salt and very easy to season the food too.
