Ca Kho To (Vietnamese braised fish)




I don't want to go all crazy with ingredient, so I kept it pretty simple!! Takes about 15 minutes to make this.

Ingredients:
- 4 to 5 1 inch steak cut cat fish
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 medium onion minced
- salt and black pepper
- Thai chili pepper (optional)
- Sauce: In a bowl, add 2 tbs soy sauce, 2 tbs fish sauce, 1 tbs balsamic vinegar, 1 tbs sugar, and 1 tbs honey.

This dish is very salty and sweet, so eat it with rice to balance the flavor.  Canh Chua also go with this meal.
