About Sambal ikan bilis

Sambal Ikan Bilis is a popular condiment in Malaysian and Indonesian cuisine, known for its bold, spicy flavor and rich aroma. This dish is made by sautéing dried anchovies (ikan bilis) with a blend of chili peppers, garlic, shallots, tamarind, and sometimes sugar, creating a savory and slightly sweet relish. Anchovies are a good source of protein, calcium, and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting bone health and heart health. However, the dish can be high in sodium due to the salted fish and added seasoning, making moderation important for those watching their salt intake. The chilies used provide antioxidants and vitamin C, boosting immune health. Sambal Ikan Bilis is often enjoyed as a side dish or topping, paired with rice, noodles, or traditional breakfasts like nasi lemak. Its intense flavor profile makes it a vibrant addition to any meal, bringing a delightful combination of heat and umami.
