Tuna is in season in our area, and the price is very cheap. Usually the size of this fish is very diverse in traditional markets from small to large. Since I wanted to make red lado, I was happy with the small size of the fish. This simple dish is one that I often serve at home for lunch or dinner with my family.
Tuna fish lado sambal is a small processed fish that I prepare for lunch at home. I prepare this menu as a side dish for lunch using white rice. Usually, lado fish is identical to bright red chili sauce which has a spicy flavor. However, there are also many people who make it sweet by adding a little sugar like I did this time. So instead of being curious, let's make this simple recipe below.
Ingredients Needed
Main ingredients
1 pandan leaf
5 curry leaves
1 minced shallot clove
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
Ground Spices
2 tomatoes
5 cloves shallots
2 cloves of garlic
Well, here the fish that I use has been cleaned first then I marinate it with a tablespoon of salt and also half a part of lime juice. I let it sit for about 15 minutes until the fish is fully absorbed.
Cooking Procedure

Blend with enough water, until the spices are evenly distributed.
