Most expansive Fish


EMPURAU the most extraordinary tasted fish and unique as it has edible and beautiful scales, tremendous power, very suitable as “The King of The Rivers” idioms.
OTHER COMMON NAMES :
·         Kelah Fish
  • Empurau
  • Wang Pu Liao / 忘不了
The ‘Empurau’ is freshwater fish which is native in Sarawak, and has its habitat in clean/clear fast moving streams. This fish has tender and rich textured flesh with special aroma which is mainly due to its special diet of ‘Buah Kabang’ or Engkabang(as in The Star). For the fish to be suitable for the table, it needs to be at least 3kg and above so that the flesh would have firm body. Anything below 3 kg would result in soft texture flesh which is due to the high fat content. The older and heavier it gets the flesh would firm up but the essential fats are still maintained.
