Sinaing na Isda(slow cooked fish in soy sauce)

This dish is one of laguna and batangas specialty recipe(a province in the Philippines)…My wife is from laguna, Usually they use “tulingan”, a kind of fish similar to tuna but a smaller one…Cooking style is similar to our famous ADOBO, slowly cooked for 2 hours or more until its soft that you can eat even the fish bones. To compliment the fish, it was cook with a pork fat to give extra flavor for the dish….Did you know that fish is a high-protein and a good source of omega-3-fatty acids.this omega 3 help maintain cardiovascular health by playing a role in the regulation of blood clotting and vessel constriction….
