3 garlic cloves
4 shallots, red Asian
3 stems lemongrass, white part only, finely sliced
1 teaspoon turmeric, ground
2 chilies, red
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons oil
1 lb boneless fish fillet
1 tablespoon fish sauce

Steps:

Place the garlic, shallots, lemon grass, turmeric, chills, salt and pepper in a food processor and process until a paste is formed, adding the oil to help the grinding.
Cut the fish into large bite-sized pieces. Place the fish in a bowl with the spice paste, toss well and cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Place the fish on a foil-lined grill tray and cook under a hot grill for 3 to 4 minutes, turning the pieces over so the fish browns on all sides.
Arrange the fish on a serving plate and sprinkle over the fish sauce.
Serve immediately with rice.
Note: Does not include 15 minute marinating time.
