sambal prawns

Two weeks ago, I had the craving for the Ikan Bakar at Petaling Street. 
It's been a while since we went there for food. 
Usually, we had to wait for about 30-45 mins just for our food. To our surprise this time around it only took 25 mins. I guess it was our lucky day cos as we started eating, the crowd at the place grew.

The pics does not do justify to the how good the food is. 
We ordered clams (non spicy) and stingray fish (normal spicy).
3 plates of rice and the bill came up to RM 23.00




Then the other day, I attempt to recreate the dish without the foil and the grilling.
I think it turned out almost similar but something was missing though.
I should have grind the ingredients longer (my patiences was running low).
It was also less watery cos i did not wrap it up with foil.

Next trial would be with banana leaves and more patiences with the grinding...

Thank you for visiting Cook Lisa Cook and for making my Spicy Brown Sugar Bacon, that stuff is dangerously good and easy to eat the entire batch in one go. Your Sambal prawns look delicious, I haven't made them in ages but will have to do so soon. Have a great weekend.
