galunggong is still cheap

prices are now jacking up. but, generally, price of galunggong is still cheap.

we had galunggong for dinner. it was only about 75 pesos for 10 pieces. the fish was enough for the three of us plus an additional lunch pack for my hunny. this makes the 75 peso meal good for 4 servings. that's about 18 pesos per serving and the serving is good.

fried galunggong

10 pieces galunggong
oil for frying
salt
little wine

clean the fresh fish. remove the gills and the intestines. wash with running water.
sprinkle generously with salt. add about 1/2 cup of wine. marinate for about 10 minutes.

put oil in hot pan. place enough oil in the pan so that it can cover half the body of the fish.

fry the first side of the fish for about 15 minutes in medium heat. we fry the fish crispy brown so that i can eat the whole head. do not move the fish until it is well done on one side. moving it before it is done will destroy the flesh of the fish.

flip over the fish to cook the other side. fry for another 10 minutes.

serve with boiled tomatoes with bagoong.
