Acar buah ikan asin is a variation of the traditional Malaysian acar buah, where the addition of ikan asin, or salted fish, provides a savoury and umami-rich twist to the dish.
To make acar buah ikan asin, salted fish is typically first soaked in water to reduce its saltiness and then flaked or shredded into small pieces. These salted fish pieces are then added to the usual mix of assorted fruits, such as pineapple, cucumber, papaya, and mango, along with the pickling sauce.
The pickling sauce for acar buah ikan asin usually consists of sugar, salt, and spices like cloves, cinnamon, and star anise, similar to the traditional version. The combination of sweet, tangy, and salty flavours creates a unique taste experience.
Acar buah ikan asin is often served as a side dish or condiment, complementing main courses in Malaysian cuisine. The addition of salted fish adds depth of flavour and texture to the dish, making it a flavourful accompaniment to rice dishes or grilled meats.
