Chilli Lime Fish

Fish is trended again and of course, how can I not trend chillies simultaneously. Both in fact has become like a customary thingy in my house. Fish without a doubt, do I have to repeat myself? Must I repeat again and again (Grilled Fish Sandwich, Vietnamese Fish Soup, Thai Green Fish Curry, Kerala Fish Fry & Hong Kong Style Steamed Fish)? No need right? Thank you so much. So, what's the cooking story for fish today (Nyonya Assam Fish Curry, Grilled Salmon, Malaysian Indian Fish Curry, Grilled Fish In Banana Leaf & Grilled Fish Sambal Stuffed)? Pretty much, you know me right? I don't get all worked up in my kitchen. I don't have the time anyway. So, I fried the fish marinated with turmeric powder and chilli powder and then, the chilli lime aromatic sauce tipped atop. Bang! Explosion of our Malaysian tastes!
