Ikan Bilis, with peanuts, is a delicious side dish with Malay or Indonesian style Curries and rice and great on its own served along side an ice cold beer.
This recipe for a Malay style chicken curry can be considered a base curry from which a number of deviations can be made. You may choose to add more or less chilli, add onion and or potato, adjust the spice mix or Nonyacise it (yes I just made up that word) by increasing lemon grass and shrimp paste or make it more traditional by removing those items all together and increasing the tamarind content.
