Sinigang na Bangus Recipe

Boiled Milkfish with Sour Broth and Vegetables

 

"The milkfish is an important seafood in Southeast Asia and some Pacific Islands. Because milkfish is notorious for being much bonier than other food fish, deboned milkfish, called "boneless bangus" (bangus is the local name) in the Philippines, has become popular in stores and markets"
