As the cook in the house, I find it challenging to decide what recipe to use and what ingredients my mother bought. Sometimes, I just base my decisions on the situation or whether I already cooked this recipe a few days ago.
My whole family has colds and coughs right now. I am the only one not infected, so I feel like I am going next, LOL. Maybe I will cook a recipe that will help them, or maybe not. Based on what I believe, Vinegar can help thin mucus that causes colds, and I guess that is how it is. It is true, though, and adding spicy chili powder makes it extra effective.
What I am going to cook today is called Paksiw na Tilapia mainly cooked with vinegar, garlic, onion, ginger, and green chili we don't have stock in the fridge for a moment it is better to add one or two.

When the oil was hot enough, I added aromatics like garlic, red onion, and ginger. And I sautee them for a minute or until the fragrance of aromatics comes out.
After sauteing the aromatics, I added 1 tablespoon of fish sauce for extra flavor. Let the fish sauce cook for a second.
After I added the fish sauce, I then added 2 cups of water to the pan. And I let it boil before adding something in.
After I added the white vinegar, I added the tilapia into the pan.
I added the ground pepper in.
To add extra flavor to the dish I added 1 teaspoon magic sarap seasoning. Add a lot of flavor.
Mix all the condiments and pour some on the fish to absorb the flavor more.
Before I close the lip, I sprinkle a teaspoon of rock salt above the fish which makes the fish more flavorful.
Then close the lid and let the fish cook for 5 minutes with low fire.
After cooking the fish for 5 minutes, I flip all the fish to the other side and cook it again for 5 minutes.
Now the dish is ready to be served! :D
