The Fish mixture
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion
500 g fish fillets (either fresh or frozen)
1/4 teaspoon sambal tjampoer (or 1/4 teaspoon any very hot chili sauce)
2 tablespoons soya sauce (extra,to taste)
3 tablespoons desiccated coconut
1/4 cup coconut meat (large white chunks of coconut) (optional)
1/2 cup Sweet and sour sauce
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons cornflour (cornstarch)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
The Rest
8 large tortillas
grated cheese, for topping

1
Saute the onion in the olive oil in pan, add the soy sauce, sambal and sweet and sour sauce.
2
Add the fish and simmer for 15 minutes, add more soy sauce according to preference and the dissicated coconut and the coconut meat (if used).
3
Simmer for several minutes more (the sauce should have reduced somewhat and the whole mixture be cooked and not too liquid at all).
4
Put spoonfulls into the middle of tortilla's and roll them up, tucking in the ends as you go to make little parcels.
5
Line up the packages in an oven dish, sprinkle grated cheese over the top, put into a hot oven (200 C) for about 20 minutes until hot.
6
*note*these can be made the day before and heated the next day, but you'll need to allow more time in the oven.
7
Serve with fresh crisp salad and white rice.
8
*note*Here in the Netherlands there are many different Sambal's available, and now I often see them in the Indonesian section of overseas supermarkets.If you can't get it I think that most hot pepper/chilli sauces could be used as substitute. Yes, you can make this mild enough for the kids to eat too!
