Tips:
1. When frying the fish, be sure to wipe or dry the water on the fish, otherwise the oil will splash when the fish is fried.
2. If you like to eat sweet, you can increase the amount of sugar. You can also add two dried chilies when cooking the spiced juice. The slightly spicy taste is also good.
