Dinengdeng with Fried Fish Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Dinengdeng with Fried Fish is simple, but it is delicious and satisfying (as far as I am concerned). This is one of the Filipino recipes or dishes that anyone can prepare and still get positive results, most of the time.

Dinengdeng Mixed Vegetables with Fried Fish Recipe

This dinengdeng version makes use of fried fish. If I remember it correctly, the last dinengdeng recipe that I featured made use of grilled bangus. Both versions are good and I enjoyed every bite.

When cooking dinengdeng, it is important to extract the flavors of every ingredient. This is the reason why the tomato, ginger, and onion go first before the other vegetables. I also want to preserve the appearance of the veggies while making sure that each is cooked properly. In order to achieve this, add the non-leafy vegetables in the middle of the cooking process; these are the okra, sitaw, and ampalaya. Add the leafy ones towards the end since cooks quickly.

Dinengdeng with Fried Fish

Aside from the bagoong monamon, the fish plays a big role in providing flavor to the dish. I usually let the fish boil with the vegetables for 1 to 2 minutes before turning the heat off. This will let the liquid absorb the flavor from the fish. Note that the fish was placed on top of the veggies and it is not fully submerged. This will give your dish the extra flavor while you can still enjoy the texture of fried fish (by eating the top part).

Try this Dinengdeng with Fried Fish Recipe. Enjoy!

      Chel -- almost kahit anong klase ng isda ay pwedeng gamitin basta ang sukat ay mula medium hanggang large. Ang mga karaniwang isda na ginagamit ko ay ang mga sumusunod:

      Ayungin (silver perch)
      Bisugo (threadfin bream)
      Dalagang bukid (yellow tail fusilier)
      Galunggong (Mackerel Scad)
      Lapu-lapu (grouper)
      Matang baka (big eyed scad)

      Kung malaki ang isda na balak mong gamitin, pwedeng hiwain ito bago i-prito, or hiwain bago ilagay kasama ng mga gulay.
