Spicy Deep Fried Tuna Salad (ยําปลาทูน่าฟู)
I've been craving for Spicy Deep Fried Catfish Salad(ยำปลาดกฟู) for a while. It's one of those dishes I would get whenever I go to Bangkok. Whenever I visit Bangkok、I always head out to local flee markets. There are plenty of authentic spicy foods, and one of the dishes I enjoy a lot is Spicy Deep Fried Catfish Salad--crispy catfish with Thai style spicy dressing served with cucumber slices and tomatoes.
Yesterday while I was grocery shopping, the store put out some canned tuna for sale. I immediately scored one of them and made this wonderful spicy deep fried Tuna salad. While charcoal grilled catfish is best for this kind of salad, but I want to make the best dish possible. So I drained off an excess water from tuna, patiently broke it into small flakes with a fork,deep fried it to golden crisp. Then I prepared the dressing with a lot of chilies, the way I like it. The end result was really rewarding.
