This recipe is a doddle and is really really tasty. I swapped out oil for frylight to make it a little lighter, and in future I would reduce the fish sauce to 1tbsp, as I found while it didn’t overpower the dish, it definitely stood out. The dish is reasonably hot too – so maybe consider how much chilli you want to use too 🌶 🥵 Will definitely make this regularly and try to with chicken and different fish.
