  1. Clean the mackerel, rub salt generously inside the belly, then refrigerate.
  2. Blend the large chilies, most of the bird's-eye chilies (save a few whole to add later), shallots, garlic, a little turmeric, shrimp paste, tomato, and salt into a chili paste.
  3. Heat oil in a pan and sauté the sliced scallion, lemongrass, and galangal until fragrant.
  4. Add the bay leaves, then stir in the chili paste and cook until the chilies break down and are fully cooked.
  5. Add the reserved whole bird's-eye chilies and remaining scallion, add sugar, and cook until the flavor is balanced (spicy, sweet, savory, slightly sour).
  6. Add most of the Thai basil, stir briefly while still hot, then turn off the heat; keep some fresh basil aside for garnish.
  7. Fry the mackerel in very hot oil until the belly turns crisp, about 3-5 minutes, until golden and crunchy.
  8. Serve the fried fish topped with the basil chili sauce and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
