Salted Fish & Mango Sambal (Gravy)

A weird combination? Of course not. I made Salted Fish & Mango Sambal, and I just so loved the role play of saltiness, sourness and spiciness in one. Anyway, have you tried Salted Fish (Pada Salt Fish Pickle & Salt Fish Pickle) & Mango Sambal before? If you have not, you shouldn't comment. Unless and until you make and taste, your feedback is valid. Otherwise?
