Baked Milkfish Fillet
Topic: Fish
One thing I like in Milkfish is it taste good even you cook it in a very simple way, even just broiling or grilling it without any spices nor salt on it, the taste is still very tempting since it has its own natural flavors. Last night, I tried to cooked the last piece of Milkfish in our fridge, I filleted it and planned to bake it with lemon juice and some spices but I changed my mind when I remembered a recipe in one Thai cooking website using the ingredients I will list below, I just omitted some spices which I think will not suit my taste, I also reduced the amount of red chili and fish sauce on it, the original recipe used 1 tbsp. chopped red chili (oh too hot) and 3 tbsp. fish sauce which I think will distract the natural taste of the Milkfish. The result is good but to be honest, I still prefer the way I cooked it before using only lemon juiced and soy sauce with few spices on it. I will just post it later here because I did not able to cook it again since I started this blog.

1 tsp. chopped red chili

Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients together.
2. Marinate fish fillet for 25 minutes.
3. Cooked in preheated 250 degrees C oven for 20 minutes. Serve with lemon slices.
