Ginataang Pagi, Stingray in Coconut Milk

Ginataang Pagi, Stingray in Coconut Milk
Ginataang Pagi, Stingray in Coconut Milk. This is an alternative to the popular stingray in coconut milk recipe Kinunot na Pagi. My version of ginataang na pagi is similar to the cooking method of ginataang hito. While kinunot na pagi is made up of shredded stingray meat and moringa leaves, my ginataang pagi is made up of stingray cut into serving pieces with turmeric powder which gives the dish a yellow tint. 

Stingray in Coconut Milk

Stingrays are usually cheap at this part of the world for the reason that it is not as popular compared to other Asian countries like the Philippines. However they do not come every day on the fish market, they are not even sold in supermarkets here. Other than that stingrays are really great dish if prepared and cooked properly.
