GRILLED SNAPPER AND KERABU MANGO

I made this by accident!!. My plan was to make Steam Seabass With Mango Kerabu. Bought all the Kerabu Mango ingredients and was really happy that I can have my Thai Food at home, but unfortunately I could'nt find any Seabass around. Quite unusual this fish is always everywhere in the supermarket!!!. Leaving me no choice since I had mentioned to my kids that I'm making Thai food...I bought  slice white fish..Red Snapper. Red Snapper is best for grilling so my next step is to get the recipe for Grilled Fish...the Malaysia way...found in the net so here's go my Grilled Fish With Kerabu Mango.

To my surprise it turned out good..not that excellent as compared to Steam Seabass. Anyway if you are caught in such situation like me..then fusion your recipe..I called this mix and match recipe...

Of course if you had tasted Kerabu Mango and Malaysian Grilled Fish..then you know how awesome it was...tasty and yummly delicious.
