SPOT THE ERROR 235


FISH MACKEREL CRACKERS

THE CORRECT VERSION:

MACKEREL CRACKERS

or 

MACKAREL FISH CRACKERS

[Although I feel "Mackerel Fish" is a repetition - the word "fish" is not necessary].

Asam Pedas is a local/traditional Malay dish that is spicy and slightly sourish. 
Definitely no acid is added into the cuisine during preparation.

The dish needs no translation I think, leave the name as it is.
