Dinengdeng with Inihaw na Bangus

Dinengdeng with Inihaw na Bangus. With the Holiday Celebrations of meat overload dishes are over its time to return to a healthier vegetable and fish dish to start our New Year’s Resolutions, first on the list, to cut down on weight, yes I know this is one of the top New Year’s Resolutions of most of us foodies. For my first post for the year I could not think of a more appropriate vegetable and fish dish than the Ilokano and personal vegetable fish dish favourite, the Dinengdeng with Inihaw na Bangus.
