Ingredients

  • Cooking oil
  • 3-5 Bulad (salted dried fish)
  • 1 thumb size ginger sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic copped
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 1 tomato sliced
  • ¼ cup red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 green chili sliced
  • ½ - 2/3 cup water
  • Spring onions sliced
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Fried eggs with tomatoes (optional)
  • Cook white rice to serve

Instructions

  1. In a pan over medium heat, add cooking oil. When the oil is hot enough, fry the salted dried fish on both sides until cooked. Remove from the pan and transfer to a plate. Discard the oil.
  2. Using the same pan, add cooking oil. When the oil is hot enough, add ginger and garlic; cook for about 1 minute. Add sliced onion, tomato, red bell pepper, and chili; cook until soft. Add water (depending on how “saucy” you dish to be) and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Add spring onions, then season with salt & pepper.
  4. Transfer the sauce to a plate and top with the fried salted dried fish.
  5. Serve with warm cooked white rice. I also like to have fried eggs with tomatoes on the side.

Recipe Notes

  • You can simmer the fried salted dried fish with the “sauce”, but I’d like to keep the crispiness of the fish so I didn’t do it.
  • Also, you can add eggs to the sauce like how you make Sarciadong Isda but I’d like to enjoy it separately.
