When I asked my husband to buy some broccoli on his way home from work yesterday, he thought I was going to cook beef with broccoli. When he got home I told him, no, I was doing a bangus (milkfish) stir fry, he didn’t seem so excited. In fact, he looked weirded out. After dinner, however, he suggested we eat more stir fried fish dishes, just like this bangus and broccoli stir fry. Right, never let bias and preconceived notions get in the way of a great gastronomic experience.

bangus (milkfish) and broccoli stir fry

I used bangus fillets for this dish. Belly fillets and back fillets are available in supermarkets.

      :wink: hello, getting out from ordinary, good venture indeed. I’ve just cooked Quiche of chinese cabbage or pechay baguio, at least you can try that one, but for me can only be possible if someone send Bangus thru e-mail (i wish it is possible):lol:

      Armina, lapu-lapu would be great with broccoli!

      Relly, quiche with pechay? wow! I love quiche but I’m not so good at making the crust. Gotta practice.

      Kats, diet kasi eh. Need to be extra creative hehehe

      would it be ok if the bangus is velveted rather than being drenched in flour??

    7. Connie on February 1st, 2006 4:18 pm

      Gene’s student, it isn’t drenched in flour; it is DREDGED in flour.

      What do you mean by velveted?

    8. Rin on February 1st, 2006 10:17 pm

      Hardly buy bangus because of the scales and bones. Of course, can have it cleaned for for extra$. I would probably try catfish belly instead. Like your site.:cool:

      sorry for the typo…….anyway hopefuly there is a word “velveted”…… anyway you velvet by lighly frying the item in a semi hot cooking oil, i tried it in shrimp, pork and chicken in our asian table, as far as i remember its good for chinese stir fry.

    10. Connie on February 3rd, 2006 1:07 pm

      Gene’s student, yah, that should do the trick. I only dredge the fish in flour to avoid oil spatters while frying. Makes cleaning up easier.

      Hi Connie,

      Well i finally tried this recipe for lunch today and my mom was so appreciative! She absolutely loved it and so did I of course :grin: She said it should be included in a restaurant menu :razz: Ang sarap talaga! :wink:

      The picture looks so appetizing!!! I want to try this tonight but I only have cauliflower on hand (instead of broccoli). You think that would work?

      Thanks for the recipe!!!

      hi connie,

      don’t have sesame oil, what do you suggest?
      also, how do i prepare fish broth? or me available po ba na cubes or powder?

      this is a good recipe, i want to try it.
      thanks!

    14. Connie on August 9th, 2007 10:43 pm

      Lizette, I never recommend broth cubes or powdered broth because they reek of MSG. Boil a head of a fish in water with spices or even just fish bones.

      I don’t know of any worthy substitute for sesame seed oil.

      I’ve been checking your website for years now, and tried several recipes already, though I only try the easy to prepare ones. :)

      I searched your archive for bangus belly, for a change on the table. I’ve been sick and tired of plain fried bangus belly ever since we found where to purchase them… and found this recipe. tried it the same day, as soon as I went home. I have 3 toddlers in the house, a teenager, and a picky husband. But they all loved it! Funny thing is, the kids wasked for more “sabaw”, thinking htat the sauce is soup. As always!

      Keep up the good work! God bless!
