PAIS CILI IKAN PARI / GRILLED STINGRAY IN BANANA LEAF

Stingray is good with Assam Pedas or Grilled. There are a few variations of grilled stingray. This is one of my favourite. It's simple and you don't have to prepare additional condiment to compliment the dish. Simple ingredients and simple process. I just grilled it on the pan...of course if you have extra time...extra energy this grilled stingray is perfect if you grill it on hot charcoal. The aroma will be fantastic. Serve with hot steamed rice and you will definitely ask for more.

Source : - Patyskitchen

Ingredients:

2 slices of stingray – or any fish

25 dried chilies – soak and blend to form wet paste

1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1 teaspoons chicken cube

1 ping-pong size tamarind

2 1/2 teaspoons sugar (or to taste)

1 turmeric leaf – thinly sliced

2 tablespoons oil

Directions:

1. Prepare the sambal by grinding chilies . The paste  should be well blended and smooth.
2. Mix the chili paste with the tamarind (use a spoon). Remove the tamarind seed.
3. Add in chicken cube, salts, sugar and sliced turmeric leaf. Mix well.
4. Grease a flat pan and then lay a few sheets of banana leaves in the pan.  Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil on top of the banana leaves and spread the oil evenly. Lay the fish on top of the banana leaves and add 3 tablespoons of sambal on top of the fish.
5. Heat up the pan on your stove top over medium heat and cover it with a lid.
6. Wait for 8 minutes or so and flip the fish over to the other side. Add 3 more tablespoons of sambal on the other side. Cook for another 8 minutes or so. By then, you can smell the sweet aroma of burnt banana leaves and grilled fish. Dish out and serve immediately with lime 

Ikan pari ini kalau tidak dimasak asam pedas atau asam rebus, satu lagi resipi yang pasti  akan terlintas dikepala ialah bakar. bakar cara biasa atau bakar cara membuat pais. Memang hebat. Resipi pias ikan ini adalah resipi arwah umi...kalau untuk pais ikan pari atau ikan kembong saya lebih suka cara ini, mudah dan ringkas, cili diblend sehingga halus, kemudian digaulkan dengan asam jawa sebesar bola ping-pong, masukkan gula, serbuk perasa garam dan hirisan daun kunyit. Asam Jawa tu biasanya saya biarkan begitu aje...tetapi kalau hendak buang bijinya pun boleh. Lepas tu bakar. Saya memang suka cara ini..ringkasnya sebab dengan resipi ini kita tak perlulah hendak siapkan air asam. Sambalnya aje sudah mencukupi.  Hirisan daun kuniyt itu menambahkan lagi aroma pais ini.
