I think ikan bilis simply means 'little fish'. I know it chiefly as
sambal ikan bilis, the anchovy relish served alongside nasi lemak.
The dried anchovies are soaked, fried, mixed with ginger, shallots,
balacan,tamarind (&salt &sugar)and sauteed with onions.
I see the potential for the use of these salt packed ziganids as a
substitution for the dried anchovies. They're about the same size...

Ikan bilis = anchovies
