Singaporean Anchovy, commonly known as ikan bilis, is a staple in Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly in Singapore. These small, dried fish are renowned for their intense, umami flavor and are frequently used in local dishes such as nasi lemak, sambal, and soups. Typically sun-dried and sometimes fried for added crispness, Singaporean anchovies are rich in protein, essential omega-3 fatty acids, and various vitamins and minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which support bone health. However, they can also be high in sodium due to the drying and preservation process, so moderation is key for those monitoring salt intake. Anchovies are a versatile and nutrient-packed ingredient that adds depth and savoriness to any dish while delivering health benefits in small quantities.
