Ingredients:
1 whole hamour (about 1kg)
1 tomato, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 stalk lemongrass, minced
1 stalk celery, chopped
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme
4 tbs soy sauce
2 tbs lemon juice
1 cup cooking oil
Method:
In a small bowl, mix the garlic, onion, lemongrass, celery, tomato, salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
In another shallow bowl big enough to let the fish lie flat on the surface, mix the soy sauce and lemon juice.
Stuff the fish with the vegetable mixture. Seal with a string to avoid the stuffing from spilling.
Put the fish on the other bowl with the soy sauce and lemon juice. Marinate for about 1 hour, flipping from time to time to marinate both sides of the fish evenly.
Put a wide skillet (also big enough for the fish to lie flat on the surface) over high heat. Pour in the cooking oil.
When the oil is hot, slowly put the fish. Fry one side for about 10 minutes then turn over to cook the other side. It is ideal to turn over the fish just once, so ensuring the underside is cook before turning it over is recommended.
When cooked, remove from pan and transfer to a serving plate. Serve with hot rice. Enjoy!
