Good day!
Today's lunch is very special as I got to cook one of my husband's favorites and is becoming my favorite too! This dish is special because it is very tasty, nutritious, and healthy. The name of the dish is called "Mixed Vegetables with Fried Fish and Fish Sauce". This is healthy because its ingredients are all vegetables except of course the fried fish and fish sauce. This dish is also very tasty because of the fried fish and the fish sauce. I couldn't believe how tasty this dish was until my husband introduced it to me. This dish is a traditional dish of Ilocanos/Ilokanos. Yes, my husband is Ilocano/Ilokano and I am Tagalog.
My husband taught me how to cook this and said to me that it is a very easy dish to prepare and quick to cook it is also not messy. This dish is also very flexible since you can cook it with different vegetable combinations. The main vegetables in this dish are eggplant, bitter melon, and tomato.
