Rellenong Milk Fish (Bangus) #FilipinoFoodsPhilippines

An easy way to grill milk fish which can give a tasty menu and good for picnic.

Ingredients:

1 raw egg, large
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 box raisins
1 small-sized carrot, small cubes
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 onion, chopped finely
1 large size milk fish (bangus)
1 tsp MSG
1 tsp salt
½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 green bell pepper, chopped finely
2 tbsp flour
Cooking oil for frying

Direction:

1) Scrape fish scales. Clean. Gently pound fish to loosen meat from the skin. Use flat side of knife in pounding. Break the bone at the nape and on the tail. Insert the end of the handle of an aluminum kitchen turner through the fish neck. Gently scrape down the handle between the meat and the skin. Scrape down to the tail, going around and on the other side of the fish. If you feel the meat is entirely separated from the skin, remove the handle, squeeze and push out meat (with the big bone), starting from the tail going out through the head. This way, you will be able to push out the whole meat without cutting an opening on the skin.

2) Marinate skin and head of the fish with soy sauce and calamansi juice or lemon juice. Set aside.

3) Boil fish meat in a little water. Drain. Pick out bones. Flake meat.

4) Saute garlic until brown. Add onion and tomatoes. Stir in fish meat, carrot, and pepper. Season with salt, MSG, ground pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Add raisins.

5) Transfer cooked mixture to a plate.

6) Cook, then add raw egg and flour.

7) Fill in mixture in milk fish skin.

8) Wrap milk fish in wilted banana leaves or aluminum foil. Fry. Cool before slicing.

9) Garnish with sliced fresh tomato, spring onions or parsley.

10) Serve with catsup or sauce of your choice.
