Bangus
Bangus, or milkfish, is one of Southeast Asia’s most celebrated fish. Its tender, flaky flesh makes it flavorful and easy to cook, much like barramundi or snapper. A staple in Filipino kitchens for generations, bangus is now ready to brighten tables around the world.
You’ll need:
- 1 Marinated Spicy Baby Milkfish
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 cup cooked rice (preferably day-old)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 egg
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Optional
- Sliced Tomatoes
- Cucumber
- Calamansi Wedges
How to make it:
- Pan-fry the bangus:
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Remove the marinated fillet from packaging and pan-fry for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Make garlic rice:
- In another pan, sauté minced garlic in a little oil until fragrant.
- Add the cooked rice and stir-fry until heated through. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fry the egg: In a small pan, cook the egg sunny-side-up or to your preference.
- Plate and serve:
- Serve the bangus with garlic rice and the fried egg on the side
- Optional: garnish with sliced tomatoes, cucumber, or a wedge of calamansi for a traditional touch.
Masarap Tip: Dip the fish in soy sauce and ½ tsp of Masarap Calamansi Citrus Concentrate for an umami bomb!
