Pinaksiwan na Salaysalay With Petchay For Our Dinner

Hello, how are you? Whenever my mom bought fish, my dad always asked me to cook it in paksiw. Sometimes, I am so done with it that I fry some of it, and my brother sometimes is done with it, so I fry some for the two of us.

But this time it has been a while since we ate one, so our taste palette is craving for it.

Ingredients I Used:

---

Let's Cook!

In a hot pan, I added 1 teaspoon of cooking oil.

---

And then I added the aromatics like garlic, red onion, and ginger, cook it until the aroma came out.

---

Then I added 1 teaspoon of fish sauce.

---

For the main condiments, I added 5 tablespoons of white vinegar. This removes the fishiness of the fish and makes the taste of fish better.

---

Then I added 1 cup of water and let it boil.

---

When the water started boiling, I added the fish. I tried to fit them all.

---

Then I added whole and ground pepper.

---

Then I added the pechay and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, on low heat. Slow cooking it to avoid the fish from getting mushy and easy to break when touched.

---

I like to cook the fish with the lid closed so that it will cook the fish evenly, even though the heat is low. And then plated it on a bowl.

---

This is perfect to eat after an hour or a whole day so that the flavors seep into the fish.

---

Happy eating!
