Yesterday, i prepared this yesterday actually but left it in the fridge overnight cos I love it served cold. This sweet, sour and spicy dish has a strong Thai influence and the Nyonya sort of adapted it too. The main difference would be the Nyonya version is less spicy and slightly sweeter. Nevertheless it will still excite your taste buds and the coriander leaves providing the aromatic fragrant.
If you are considering having this appetizer to accompany your meal, do refrain from cooking other dishes with a similar taste like Sweet and Sour Fish. I find it goes well especially with Fried Chicken and Grilled Fish.
