    Might I suggest something called pempek? It’s an Indonesian fish dumpling served with a sweet vinegar sauce. It’s super good, but takes some time to make.

      Thanks for the idea! Imma make it this week then, it looks unique with this fish grinding method, although my mom will hate it cause she doesn’t like fish at all. xD

      I checked the recipe, and it looks really good! A bit on the laborious side, but it could worse. (Worse as in “cleaning sardines from their scales and guts at home, so you can grill them, for five people”.)

        ooooh yeah, it’s pretty tedious. But man, I think it’s worth it. I haven’t had the time or energy to make it in a long while, but hopefully i can make it one day soon.

        another, easier, dish i could suggest is peri peri chicken. typically i would make the sauce and marinade a whole butterflied chicken in it for about 24 hours (I also add buttermilk to the marinade because it’s killer), then bake or throw it on the grill to cook it. I used to do that on sundays back before my depression got really bad.
