Notes: I have always been wanting to try a hand on Thai fish recipe. Read a recipe recently, and with available fish sauce in my fridge I've decided to cook this dish with some amendments to improvise the dish to suit the taste of my family. The sweet-sour-spicy taste of the sauce is yummylicious and really boost our taste buds - YUM!
