Today, I decided to try something new.
Actually, I'm not a pro at cooking. My dishes are mostly simple saute recipes.
But today, my hubby brought home a huge bangkulis/tuna fish, and I was craving something with coconut milk.
So I thought, why not combine the two? 🤔
That's why today, I decided to make "Bangkulis/Tuna in Creamy Coconut Sauce."
So join me as I share my step-by-step recipe.
Ingredients:
• fresh bangkulis/tuna
• coconut milk
• garlic
• onion
• ginger
• sweet potato leaves
• salt and pepper to taste
• cooking oil
Preparation:
• I started by putting a generous pinch of salt in the bangkulis/tuna. Then, I heated up the pan and fried the bangkulis/tuna until they turned golden brown. Once done, I set them aside.
• Next, I make fresh coconut milk by mixing the crushed coconut meat with warm water, squeezing it, and straining the mixture.
• With my coconut milk ready, I moved into the aromatics. I minced the garlic, chopped the onion, and sliced some ginger. After that, I sauteed these in the same pan.
• Finally, I poured the fresh coconut milk into the pan and brought it to a simmer.
• After the coconut milk had simmered, I added the crispy, golden fried bangkulis/tuna back into the pan. I stirred it gently, letting it cook together for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
• Next, I added a handful of fresh sweet potato leaves. I gave it a quick stir, making sure the leaves wilted.
• To finish, I seasoned it with salt and pepper to taste, balancing all the flavors perfectly.
And that's it! My simple yet delicious "Bangkulis/Tuna in Creamy Coconut Sauce" was ready to be served.
The taste of this dish was simply amazing. 🤤
Until my next recipe...
Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸
