After having lunch with the spicy savory mắm cá chưng that one of friends gave, I had the urge to produce a lot to last through these cold, raining days. I used to make this dish without carrots and yam but my friend’s mắm cá chưng looked so good with those ingredients; so I tried to replicate . . . with a slight embellishment.
After having lunch with the spicy savory mắm cá chưng that one of friends gave, I had the urge to produce a lot to last through these cold, raining days. I used to make this dish without carrots and yam but my friend’s mắm cá chưng looked so good with those ingredients; so I tried to replicate . . . with a slight embellishment.
I went hunting for ingredients in my pantry. I had 1/2 cup of Pickled Mud Fish left in the jar. I decided to use all of it with the rest of other ingredients in my recipe below. First, it turned out a bit salty. I had to add just a little more of sugar, carrots and yam. I didn’t want to cover up its saltiness as this is the essence of any mắm dish. To change it up a bit, I also added some vermicelli bean threads, eggs, and fried shallots. The result was a thumb’s up from my mother-in-law.
In the summer time, I like to eat mắm cá chưng with room-temperature rice and fresh slices of cucumber. In the winter, I like to enjoy it with hot rice and my homegrown steamed mustard greens (cải luộc). It’s a versatile dish that can be enjoyed with a combination of rice and veggies, but it’s a dish that will satisfy the pallets of those of you who crave the spice of salt . . . and water to quench your thirst afterward.
