Ikan Bakar: Indonesian And Malaysian Charcoal Grilled Fish Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Ikan bakar is charcoal-grilled fish in indonesia and malaysia. The fish is seasoned with a spice marinade then wrapped in banana leaves before being laid on the hot grill. The banana leaves keep the fish from sticking to the grill, keep the moisture in and give the food a distinct sweet herby aroma. While charcoal grilling gives the dish a wonderful smoky flavor, it is also possible to use a gas grill or even a stovetop grill. Grilled skate is a common hawker food found in the street stalls of malaysia. Look for the ikan bakar sign if you are visiting. These stalls normally serve a variety of fish for grilling but, by far, the most popular is skate. This is a recipe from kuala lumpurs famous bellamy road ikan bakar stalls which are cozily tucked away in a green corner behind the kings palace.
