after taste. Furthermore, in a freefloating
cage the waste generated
from the fish are immediately washed
away as the water is ever flowing
24/7! Pond water needs treatment to
prevent occurrence of diseases due to
the congestion and waste generated
from the fish so be careful when
purchasing such fishes even though
their prices may be cheaper.

When it comes to cooking, tilapia
fish is quite flexible; it is excellent for
steaming, especially the fresh ones
from the tank, for frying as it does
not shrink much in size when cooked
and certainly sumptuous for asam
curry. There are other possibilities
like sweet and sour, Thai sauce style,
Cantonese style, black sauce with
black beans and the fillet pieces are
always never enough when cooked
in butter sauce or deep fried. At the
fine restaurants and seafood outlets,
the tilapia is very common due to its
versatility to all types of cooking.
Able Asia Aquaculture Sdn Bhd produces, sells
tilapia eco-fish from farm at Batang Ai dam
Everyone knows that the
tilapia fish is one of the
finest when it comes to
serving guests or family as it has
good quality flesh, fresh and very
little fine bones to worry about. In
Sarawak, tilapia is easily available in
any market and usually lives ones
too! The main issue is whether it
will have a ‘muddy’ after taste when
eaten especially those that come
from ponds.
So choose those that come from Able
Asia Aquaculture Sdn Bhd, a company
that breeds the eco tilapia fish and
other fishes in free flowing water at
the Batang Ai dam in Sri Aman. There
are agents and wholesalers for the
company throughout the state so
getting their fresh eco fishes are quite
easy. At the farm, the fish are kept in
floating cages, which means they do
not nibble on mud, or bottom debris,
which give pond fish that muddy
Able Asia Aquaculture Sdn Bhd also
sells other types of eco fish like patin,
lampan, baung, kaloi and tengadak,
all quality river fishes that can be safely
recommended for serving guests.
Depending on your skills, each of these
types of fishes certainly taste richer
when cooked in the right way and the
folks at the outlets will gladly advice
you should you need so, especially
when purchasing the fish for the first
time! For those who tend to shop once
a week, keeping the fish in the freezer
is not going to make the fish taste bad
when thawed and cooked after a few
days. Because the fish bought is fresh,
the freezer will continue to keep it
fresh and ready whenever you decide
to cook it. However, it is advisable not
to keep foodstuff in freezer for too
long as that can deteriorate the quality.
