Fish roe surprise

I found a lovely surprise at the supermarket today- Fish Roe!! I've never seen it in the supermarket before and it was the only tray of fish roe on the shelf... it seemed to be calling out to me to cook something adventurous for lunch today! And so I did! Here begins my adventure with the Fish roe!



Yes, I stared at this for a few seconds too.. Not very appetizing yet I know!
...But with a handful of chopped ginger and garlic in hot oil, pan-fry the fish roes...


They're looking better already.. And here's the final result..
 Looks like a normal piece of fried fish ehh!
They taste just like a normal piece of pan-fried fish.. Perhaps just a little more tender since it's not the meat we're eating.. it's those delicate roes.
Since they were a little dry, my mother suggested using mango puree as a sauce. (Wonderful idea I must say! It really helped to tie up the different elements of my dish)
 Tada! The final result of my dish! Pan-fried fish roe with salad and mango puree! Not bad I must say! A perfect dish to perk up my Saturday!
And of course, my fave Thai Ice tea to accompany it... slurps!
