Pounded Fried Dry Fish

Hello everyone, welcome back to my kitchen jungle and today I will cook fried dry fish that is always treated in villages donation ceremony in Myanmar. I used to eat this fried dry fish a lot because I spent my childhood in Ye-U Township near Monywa District in Sagaing Division. How many times we fried this recipe at home, I didn’t feel the taste of fried dry fish is the same that I ate at the donation ceremony. This recipe needs to use oil a lot and also tried for fried if you fried a lot. My grandpa has used to be a chef since he was young and he said that “If I have to choose between pork curry and fried dry fish for guests, I will cook pork curry a lot instead of fried dry fish because it is too tried to be fried for chefs.”  He told me about the experience of fried dry fish while we cooked and I added his voice in my video.

It is a delicious dish even tried and it is delicious with cooked white rice. Older people in my house eat it with hot tea and we eat even with bread as a snack.
