Sup Ikan Merah Berserai

Salam, after 1 month of idling...today school has reopened...early morning the boys has gone to school and the house was sooo quiet... left with Marsya, who didnt want to get up although it was already 10am...maybe school holidays has made her used to waking up late...itu yang tak boleh nak bangun pagi...school bus comes at 10.30....tak kelam kabut di buatnya. half hour to prepare to bathe and breakfast..

Anyway the menu for today's entries are a few days ago..OK, the title of this soup was suppose to be just 'Sup Ikan Merah', but I added the 'Berserai' cos, I just wanted to highlight there that this soup is a bit sourish cos of the tamarind slice and lemongrass and its not the typical that I usually cooked which  lemongrass & tamarind slice are not included.. macam masak singgang pun ada rasanya..

Ingredients:-
1 ekor ikan merah sederhana besar
1 bungkus sup bunjut adabi
2 biji ubi kentang dipotong 4
3 ulas bawang merah dihiris
2 ulas bawang putih dihiris
2 keping asam gelugur-Ayu gunakan 1 keping aje
1 inci halis diketuk- Ayu hiris
3 batang serai dititik -Ayu gunakan 1 aje
sedikit lada hitam-dikisar kasar
daun sup/bawang secukupnya
garam & perasa secukupnya
minyak untuk menumis
air

Method:-
Bersihkan ikan dan toskan. Panaskan sedikit minyak kedalm peiruk. Tumiskan bawang merah, bawang putih berserta dengan sup bunjut. Setelah kekuningan, masukkan air, kentang, asam gelgur, halia serai dan lada hitam. Biarkan selama 3 minit diatas api yang sederhana. Setelah mendidih, masukkan ikan merah tadi dan tambahkan sedikit garam & perasa. Biarkan selama 2 minit atau hingga isi ikan itu masak. Tutup api dan taburkan daun sup dan daun bawang tadi. Sedia untuk dihidang.
Nota:- Jangan biarkan ikan dimasak terlalu lama kerana ini akan membuatkan isi ikan hancur dan menghilangkan keenakan rasa ikan.
