About Nyonya assam fish

Nyonya Assam Fish is a tangy, flavorful dish rooted in Peranakan cuisine, a blend of Chinese and Malay culinary traditions. This dish features fresh fish simmered in a rich tamarind-based gravy infused with a medley of spices, including lemongrass, chili, and turmeric. Often accompanied by vegetables such as okra, tomatoes, or eggplant, it offers a balance of protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids from the fish. Tamarind adds a distinctive tartness while being a source of antioxidants. However, due to the inclusion of coconut milk in some variations and the potential use of oil for the spice paste, moderation is key to managing fat and calorie intake. Low in added sugars but high in bold flavors, Nyonya Assam Fish strikes a harmony of taste and nutrition, making it a vibrant option in a balanced diet.
