FISH MENUDO

I am an omnivore and sometimes I crave for fish dishes more than meat dishes. Here's one recipe that I should try preparing one of these days when I get tired of paksiw, tinola, steamed, and fried fish.


Ingredrients:

¾ kilo Labahita, filleted and cut into 1”x 1” cubes
¾ tbsp Calamansi juice
4 cloves Garlic, crushed
4 medium (150g) Potatoes, cut into cubes
1 medium (150g) Carrot, cut into cubes
1 can (227g) DEL MONTE TOMATO SAUCE
1/3 cup Cooked or frozen green peas
1 medium Red bell pepper, cut into strips

Preparations:

1.      Marinate labahita in calamansi juice, ½ tsp iodized salt and
         ¼ tsp black pepper for 15 minutes.
         Fry in oil until golden brown. Set aside.
2.      Saute garlic, onion, potatoes and carrot.
      Add ¾ cup water and ½ tsp iodized salt.
       Simmer for 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
3.      Add green peas and DEL MONTE TOMATO SAUCE.
      Simmer for 5 minutes.
4.      Add fish and bell pepper. Simmer once and serve.
