Recipe: Thai-style Steamed Fish with Lime Juice & Garlic

If you love Thai-style ๐’๐ญ๐ž๐š๐ฆ๐ž๐ ๐…๐ข๐ฌ๐ก ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐‹๐ข๐ฆ๐ž ๐‰๐ฎ๐ข๐œ๐ž & ๐†๐š๐ซ๐ฅ๐ข๐œ aka Pla Kapong Neung Manao เธ›เธฅเธฒเธเธฐเธžเธ‡เธ™ึ่เธ‡เธกเธฐเธ™เธฒเธง , you can try recreating it at home at a fraction of restaurant prices. The best fish to use for this dish would be siakap, also known as barramundi / Asian seabass which you can get easily in Malaysia. The sauce should be a balance of spicy, sweet and sour flavours ๐Ÿ˜‹ Easy, delicious and appetising!

Also, I'm taking this opportunity to wish all my Muslim friends Happy Fasting and have a blessed Ramadan month.
