Asam Laksa Penang

Name: 槟城亚参叻沙（Asam Laksa）
Prep time: 12 min
Cook time: 16 min
Total time: 28 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: malaysian
Ingredients: 150 g Indian mackerel (~2 fish); 60 g rice vermicelli (dry, softened); 8 g tamarind paste (dissolved, strained); 12 g chili paste (cili boh); 40 g red onion (sliced); 40 g cucumber (julienned); 40 g pineapple (sliced); 8 g mint leaves; 1 lemongrass stalk (bruised); 2 g sugar (a pinch); pinch of salt

Penang's sour-spicy fish laksa is naturally lean — we pile in extra mackerel, skip oil entirely, let tamarind and lemongrass carry the tang, and top it with mint and pineapple for a bright, appetising, feather-light bowl.
