Pesang Bangus is one of my fave dish with Milkfish (Bangus). Aside from the usual paksiw, tinola, or daing na Bangus, Pesang Bangus is something I like cooking when we have Bangus from the market.
Ingredients:2 tbsp cooking oil
2 tbsp sliced ginger
1 tbsp chopped garlic
3 cups water
1 whole medium-size bangus, sliced and washed thoroughly
2 cups sliced cabbage
2 cups sliced petchay tagalog
1 stalk leeks, sliced into 3 pieces
1 8g sachet Maggi Magic Sarap
patis to taste
Procedure:
1. Heat oil. Saute ginger, garlic and onion until limp.
2. Pour in water and bring to a boil. Add bangus and let boil.
3. When bangus turns white in color (after 5 minutes), add cabbage. Simmer for 1 minute.
4. Add petchay and leeks. Cook for another minute.
5. Season with Maggi Magic Sarap and patis to taste.
