【叁巴沙丁鱼】Spicy Sardine Sambal With Potatoes

这阵子天气渐渐凉了，就老想着吃一些暖胃的菜，这道叁巴沙丁鱼是以前在马来西亚的时候很喜欢做的一道菜，是傍晚懒得去菜市场的时候加菜的好选择。

The weather is getting colder by the day, so I have been craving for some spicy dishes that could warm the body and my heart for quite some times.

So I made this Spicy Sardine Sambal with Potatoes today, it is a good dish to help improving appetite and a dish often  made back home shall the stock in the fridge run low.

It is so simple and quick that it could be made under 15 minutes.

材料：

1 罐 茄汁沙丁鱼

1 只 中型土豆 （去皮切丁/切小块）

1/2 只 洋葱 （切丝/切圈）

2-3 只 辣椒（斜切成段）

2-3 大勺 番茄酱 （Ketchup）

少许 盐

2-3 大勺 多用途叁巴辣椒酱

Ingredients：
1 can of sardine in tomato sauce
1 Medium size potato (skinned and cubed) This is my homegrown!
1/2 medium size onion (slice)
2-3 green or red chilies (cut into 1 inch long)
2-3 tbsp Ketchup
Salt to taste
1-2 tbsp Sambal Tumis

1. 先把土豆/马铃薯炸成金黄色备用。取出土豆块，把油盛出。

2. 同一口锅里剩下2大匙油，把叁巴辣椒糊倒入煸炒至红油泛出。加入洋葱丝和辣椒段稍微煸炒，然后加入土豆/马铃薯块翻炒大约1-2分钟。加入一杯水，煮滚之后，加盐和番茄酱调味。

3. 倒入罐头茄汁沙丁鱼，煮2-3分钟，间中稍微翻动，但是动作不要太大，因为沙丁鱼已经是熟的了，动作太大鱼块会不成形。 

1. Heat up about 1 inch of oil in a wok and deep fry the potatoes until golden in color.

2. Scoop out excess oil and leave about 2 tbsp, add the sambal tumis and cook until the oil separated at the edge.

3. Stir in sliced onion and green chili, followed by fried potato cubes, cook for 1-2 minutes, pour in 1 cup of water and bring to boil, season with salt and ketchup, cook for 3-4 minutes.

4. Add the sardine with its sauce, cook for 2-3 more minutes or until the gravy reaches desired consistency. Try not to over stir the fishes, else they will break.

下饭好吃的叁巴沙丁鱼。

It is a perfect dish to go with steamed jasmine rice!
