Pinamalhan na Bangus

One of the easiest yet delectable is cooking it paksiw Ilonggo-style called pinamalhan. It is rooted from the Hiligaynon word "mala" meaning dry.


But most of the time, we tend to leave a better portion of the sauce as sabaw thus making the recipe an adobo-like paksiw rather than a paksiw-made-dry, to which pinamalhan got it's name. Namit gid!

Here's a simple recipe for Pinamalhan nga Bangus.


Ingredients
  • 1 large bangus fish, gutted, cleaned and sliced 
  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 2 table spoons soy sauce
  • Ginger, sliced 
  • 5 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 1 medium Onion, sliced
  • 2 Chili 
  • Salt
  • Oil


How to cook Pinamalhan na Bangus
  1. Wash and drain the bangus slices.
  2. In a pan, arrange bangus at the bottom then top ginger, garlic, chili and onions. Sprinkle a little salt.
  3. Pour in vinegar and soy sauce - making sure the bangus slices are covered. You can add more if you want
  4. Let the concoction boil until almost dry.
  5. Pour oil over the cooked bangus before removing from heat and serving.

When making pinamalhan at home, we just estimate the measurements of the ingredients. So the ones posted here are just guides for the recipe. Just make some taste adjustments after the concoction has boiled. Enjoy!

Valenciana

Ilonggos really love valenciana because most if not all have grown accustomed of having it in almost all occasions like fiesta, brithdays, reunions and all other occasions thus I love calling it as the "occasional dish".   Basically, " go, grow and glow " dish, it has the carbohydrates, protein and vitamins and minerals in just one spoonful. And it can come in its simplest form with just malagkit rice, pork, chorizo and bell peppers to some fancy with additions like raisins, peas, chicken, hardboiled egg (just garnish though), etc.  Here's the recipe for Valenciana Ingredients 3 cups Glutinous Rice ( malagkit ) 2 cups Pork, sliced 1 cup Pork, Beef or Chicken  Liver, sliced 2-3 pieces Chinese sausage, sliced 2-3 large red bell peppers, sliced lengthwise 1 cup Green Peas 3 small boxes Raisins 2 pcs.Onion, chopped 4 cloves garlic, crushed salt and ground pepper to taste  2 pcs. pork/chicken bouillon/broth cube
