Sinigang na Bangus Recipe

This Sinigang na Bangus Recipe is not hard to make. Just don’t mix after putting the bangus because you will end up with a crashed meal.

Two days ago, I and my best friend went to watch “How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.” The movie is astonishing but saddening at the same time.

Though purely fantasy, the movie catapulted people’s emotion, especially those pet owners. I related to the last part where Hiccup let go of Toothless because the dragon, as an alpha, had to lead a kingdom of Dragons along with his newly-found light fury.

It’s indeed hard to let go of a pet that you treated as a part of your family.

Well, Toothless and I have something in common: we both love to eat fish.

Just recently, I cooked Sinigang na Bangus. Here is the recipe:
