­Paksiw na Bangus

Paksiw na Bangus or Milkfish stewed in vinegar is one of my fondly remembered food that my mom cooks. She still cooks this till this day. This is a very simple dish to cook that is full of flavor. The vinegar in the dish acts as preservative, thus making it last till the next meal, if there are leftovers. This dish is perfect for summer, when the heat and the humidity spoils food easily.

Because it takes a lot of time to remove the milkfish bones when eating, I always use our favorite bangus back fillet which can be bought from the supermarket and which I have been using for our meals for the last six (or even more) years. You can use the whole milkfish or other local fish available.

4. Put the vegetables** on top of the fish. Put some on the bottom if so desired.
5. Season with a little salt and ground pepper.
