The Philippines is famous for dishes that use coconut milk. This method of cooking is locally referred to as “Ginataan or Guinataan”, which means to cook in coconut milk. Mixed Seafood in Coconut Milk deals with shrimp crab, squid, and other seafood. These are sautéed with garlic and onion and then cooked in coconut cream or coconut milk with some hot chili peppers.

Mixed Seafood in Coconut Milk

There are many famous regional dishes that make use coconut milk. Laing, Bicol express, Ginataang Tilapia, Ginataang Manok, Binignit, and Ginataang Mais are some of the popular ones.

Mixed Seafood in Coconut milk is a combination of different sea foods such as crabs, mussels, shrimp, and squid — all cooked in coconut milk or coconut cream. Although it might sound simple, this recipe really tastes good.

I like seafood; this dish brings out the good flavors of the seafood ingredients in a way that is pleasant to our taste buds. I also love the kick from the dried chilies. I recommend having this dish with generous amounts of steamed rice.

      Where is your locale? If you live somewhere in the US, you can try your local hispanic store, they like using the seafood mix in their ceviche dish.
