How is Grilled Fish used in Thai cooking?

Grilled fish - pla yang - is fresh river fish cooked simply over the coals, often stuffed with lemongrass and herbs and crusted with salt on the outside. The skin chars and crisps while the flesh inside stays moist and smoky. It's the kind of honest, unfussy dish that shows off good fish and a hot fire rather than heavy seasoning. We grill it whole for lunch and serve it with a sharp dipping sauce - pick the flesh from the bone and scoop it up with sticky rice.
