Have you tried bottled tuyo? This might be new to some of you. I knew about this only a few months ago – when I was craving for tuyo (and it is winter here), but I did not want the smell to linger inside the house. I discovered it when I was getting some bottled Spanish bangus sardines from the Asian store. I think that it is also called gourmet tuyo.

Here is my Instagram post about bottled tuyo:

I tried to use this ingredient to make Monggo. I think that using bottled tuyo for this Monggo with tuyo recipe is just perfect because the fish has the right amount of saltiness and the fish can be eaten with the bones. Yes, you read it correctly – the fish is soft enough to the point that it can be eaten without segregating the meat from the bones.

Some of you might be tempted to try this recipe using regular tuyo (not in a bottle). If this is the case, I recommend that you first fry the tuyo, remove the head, scales, and fish bones before you make this recipe. You deserve to enjoy this dish without any issues after all.
I added malunggay leaves to complete this dish. It is a very healthy vegetable that can help improve our health. Know more about malunggay. You can also put-in spinach, saluyot, or even alugbati. Enjoy this with warm rice.

Aside from making Monggo with tuyo, you can also prepare the following dishes with any type of tuyo:

  • Tuyo with Rice and Tomato
  • Creamy Tuyo Pesto
  • Tuyo Fried Rice

 

Try this Monggo with tuyo Recipe. Don’t forget to control your rice intake.
