This dish is Asian influenced. Thai being the main influence adjusting to make sure the RSC ingredients are added. This spicy sauce goes nicely with the crispy fish which has a hint of curry (Indian influence). You will not be disappointed! If Fresh Lemongrass is not available use dried or fresh lemon juice.
