Use a sharp knife and make a few deep scores on the both sides of the fish.2Step 2: Spread the lime juice all over the fish to get rid of the fishy smell.3Step 3: Using a mortar & pestle or grinder, pound all the marinade spices together and mix in the oil.4Step 4: Spread the marinade all over the fish (both sides) making sure to go in between the scored marks.5Step 5: Cover and let them hang out in the fridge for at least 1 hour.6Step 6: Heat up your griddle or grill pan. Add some oil to make sure to prevent the fish from sticking.7Step 7: Gently put in the fish and grill until cooked. Different fish vary in different sizes so cooking time might differ. Mine took about 4 mins per side. Avoid flipping them over too soon and too many times to prevent sticking.8Step 8: When the fish is about done, brush the sweet sauce all over the fish and continue to cook for another min.9Step 9: Serve warm with your favorite sambal sauce. I made a simplified version of the traditional sambal matah (Balinese raw sambal).10Step 10: Chop all the ingredients finely and mix together with oil. Season with salt and let it marinate for at least 10 mins before serving.getsaucepan.com/r/4c3b5e08-f4ea-4393-ad27-54b0b82d6067 · Original: https://www.bearnakedfood.com/2015/09/04/balinese-ikan-bakar/
