Pinangat na isda

Pinangat na isda is a yummy Filipino dish made from fish that is cooked in a special way. First, you need to get some fresh fish like tilapia or bangus. Then, you mix some tomatoes, onions, and ginger in a pot with water and vinegar, and add some salt to taste.

Next, you put the fish into the pot and let it cook for a while until it becomes tender. The special part about pinangat na isda is that you use leaves from a special plant called "gabi" to wrap around the fish and the mixture. This gabi leaf helps to keep all the flavors inside and adds a unique taste to the dish.

Finally, you simmer the wrapped fish in the pot until everything is cooked through and ready to eat. It is usually served with some hot rice and enjoyed by many Filipinos as a tasty and healthy meal.
