Prepare the rica-rica paste: grind red chilies, bird's eye chilies (if using), shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, and candlenuts into a fine paste. Add the chopped tomato and grind briefly to combine.

Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté the rica-rica paste until fragrant and the oil separates, about 7-10 minutes. Stir in the shredded lime leaves.

Season the paste with salt and sugar. Cook for another 2 minutes.

Generously coat the fish, inside and out, with the rica-rica paste. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Grill the fish over medium-hot charcoal or in a grill pan for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Baste with any remaining paste during grilling.
