👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the aromatics: In a mortar and pestle, pound the minced lemongrass, galangal, and chilies into a paste.
💡 專業提示: Ensure the lemongrass is finely minced to avoid fibrous texture. - 2
In a bowl, combine the fish pieces, coconut milk, chopped dill, julienned kaffir lime leaves, the aromatic paste, fish sauce, and egg yolks. Mix gently until well combined.
💡 專業提示: The egg yolks help to bind the custard. - 3
Cut the wilted banana leaves into roughly 8x8 inch squares. Place a portion of the fish mixture in the center of each banana leaf square.
💡 專業提示: Ensure the banana leaves are large enough to enclose the mixture. - 4
Fold the banana leaves to create small parcels, ensuring they are sealed. Secure the parcels with toothpicks or kitchen string.
💡 專業提示: Fold the sides in first, then fold the top and bottom over to create a neat package. - 5
Steam the parcels in a steamer basket over boiling water for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the custard is set.
⏱️ 25 minutes💡 專業提示: The custard should be firm to the touch. - 6
Carefully remove the parcels from the steamer. Serve hot, opening the banana leaf parcels at the table to release the aromatic steam.
💡 專業提示: Serve with sticky rice for a complete meal.
