- Combine the mackerel, water, tamarind soup base and fish sauce in a pot over medium heat. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes. Flip the fish, cover again and simmer another 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to sit, covered, for 1 hour.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 175 degrees C. Remove the fish from the pot and pat dry with kitchen paper to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
