We have been giving you meat and vegetable dishes lately, so we thought you guys might be wanting some fish dish to add on your meal plan this week. With that, today we are bringing a classic fish viand that Filipino households surely love.
Sarciadong Tilapia is perfect for a family that has an appetite for fresh, saucy goodness that only a fish, such as tilapia, could satisfy. Made usually with tomatoes and onions, Sarciadong Tilapia is no doubt a hit on our dining table as well, especially when we just had some fried fish days ago. That’s right, this dish is economical as well as you can actually use your leftover fried fish and transform it into another tasty and hearty recipe which as we have mentioned, is the Sarciadpng Tilapia.
Honestly, if there is one thing we want after having something fried, that is something saucy, so it was really perfect timing when we cooked this dish. Believe it or not, the word “Sarciado” actually means “cooked with thick sauce” so if you are like us and you enjoy a saucy meal paired with steamed white rice, then you will definitely have a great time with our Sarciadong Tilapia.
Other than tomatoes and onions, Sarciadong Tilapia can also be made even more filling by adding egg into that delicious mix. Seriously, this dish just gets better and better every time we talk about it, right? So you better head onto your kitchen now, check if you have some leftover fried fish or you need to run to the grocery and get some, okay? Also, don’t forget those tomatoes because your Sarciadong Tilapia will not be complete without them!
That said, if you are worried you are going to forget anything important when you are making this dish, then do know that we have prepared you the list of ingredients, alongside the step-by-step procedure to serve as your guide. So try not to panic, breathe, and just follow our recipe. Enjoy!
