  Hello Makanslation peeps,   So here it is, our final recipe of the week, Siakap Tiga Rasa Ala Thai (Thai Style Three Flavours Seabass)! 🐟✨ Did you know this dish blends Thai and Malaysian flavors due to cross-border food trends?  This dish is often linked to Thai fusion cuisine, but is truly loved by Malaysians. It’s something we always see on local menus, at wedding feasts, and even served as part of our daily meals. I still remember when I was a kid, I would wait patiently at weddings, hoping the bride didn’t finish her meal… because it usually came with this exact dish. I told myself back then, "One day, I want this at my wedding, too!"😝   My dad always asks me to cook this whenever I come home during semester break. I always refer to Che Nom’s videos; her step-by-step instructions are so easy to follow, especially when you’re craving a taste of home.   So, if I can do it, why can't you?👀   Let’s go to the kitchen and give it a try! ...
