- Heat up the barbecue.
- Cut two fresh shallots and cut a piece of ginger into thin strips and set both aside.
- Cut a cut of coriander roughly and separate it into two equal parts. Place one piece in the gutted sweetlip emperor.
- Smash two cloves of garlic to release flavor and stuff it inside the fish.
- Make a mixture of a cup of soy sauce, a cup of fish sauce, and a tablespoon of sugar and pour it over the fish, which should be in a deep tray.
- Cover the dish with foil and put it on the heated barbecue for 20 minutes.
- Check the fish and keep basting it with the marinade in the tray till it is cooked through.
- Take the cooked fish off the grill and set it aside to rest for a few minutes.
- Dress it in the cut-up ginger, coriander, and shallots.
- Heat some olive oil and pour it over the fish. The oil should be hot enough to fry the veggies on top.
- Serve and enjoy!
