Sweet and sour sauce is the favored condiment for Camaron Rebosado. Tomato Catsup is another option for a condiment. Some use mayonnaise with garlic too.

Chinese migrants introduced Camaron Rebosado to the Philippines. The term Camaron Rebosado comes from the Spanish words camaron (shrimp) and rebosado (bubble over or overflow) but has since meant “battered” in Filipino.

Easy Daing Na Bangus Recipe

This easy daing na bangus recipe is simply milkfish that has been marinated in vinegar with much garlic and then fried.

What is Daing?

Daing, Tuyô, or Bilad (literally “sun-dried” or “sun-baked”) refers to dried fish from the Philippines. Fish prepared as daing are usually split open (though they may be left whole), gutted, salted liberally, and then sun and air-dried. There are also “boneless” variants which fillets the fish before the drying process. It was originally a preservation technique, as salt inhibits the growth of bacteria, allowing fish to be stored for long periods of time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daing

Daing na Bangus is very easy to prepare. It is so tasty that even little children will love it. It is better to have the fish deboned when buying in the market as milkfish is notorious for being bonier than other food fish. In the frozen section of most supermarkets, there is deboned milkfish labeled as “boneless bangus”, which helps to make this recipe a lot easier to prepare.
