Prepare the mackerel
Wash the mackerel thoroughly and let it drain.
In a mortar, add 3 teaspoons of salt, 1.5 teaspoons of monosodium glutamate, 2 teaspoons of seasoning powder, and 2 teaspoons of shrimp salt along with 10 bird’s eye chilies, then pound the mixture until well blended.
Next, wear plastic gloves and rub the salt and chili mixture onto both sides of the fish, marinating it for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Tip: If you can’t handle too much spiciness, feel free to reduce the amount of chili!

Fry the fish
Heat a pan on the stove, add 3 tablespoons of cooking oil, and when the oil is hot, add 5 crushed garlic cloves and sauté them until fragrant over medium heat.
Next, add the marinated mackerel to the pan and fry for about 5 – 7 minutes until golden brown, then flip to the other side and continue frying.
When both sides of the fish are golden brown, remove it to a plate and you’re done!
