Pla sam rot

Pla sam rot is a traditional fish dish originating from Thailand. The dish is usually made with fish such as sea bass, tilapia, or snapper. The three-part sauce is made with a mixture of tamarind (sour), palm sugar (sweet), fish sauce (salty), and additional ingredients such as garlic, coriander, hot peppers, shallots, Thai basil, and oil. The fish is fried in oil and the sauce is then spooned over the fish. Pla sam rot is traditionally served on a platter as a shared meal, with steamed jasmine rice on the side.
