Dried Salted Fish Sambal (Sambal Ikan Masin Cili Api) is a flavorful and spicy condiment from Malaysian cuisine, typically featuring a combination of dried salted fish (ikan masin) and bird's eye chilies (cili api), which are small but very spicy chilies. The dish is known for its bold, salty, and intensely spicy flavor profile, which makes it a popular accompaniment to rice or other dishes.
To prepare this dish, the salted fish is usually fried or sautéed to enhance its umami flavor. It is then combined with finely chopped bird's eye chilies, garlic, shallots, which are pounded or blended together into a paste. The sambal is often cooked briefly to allow the flavors to meld together.
The result is a sambal that has a rich, savory taste from the salted fish, balanced with the sharp heat of the chilies. It is often served as a condiment with plain rice, fried dishes, or grilled meats, and is especially enjoyed for its strong and bold flavors.
