Hello everyone!
Hope all are safe and well! πβ€π
Today, I want to share another simple meal that we had at home. We have here another kind of fish that we call Gusaw. Sometimes, my father catches this kind of fish when he goes fishing, which makes me happy because we can have fresh seafood from the sea. But this time, he bought it at the market. π
Honestly, it was quite expensive! Unlike the fish that my father catches himself, this one was not free π But what can we do? We still need to buy food sometimes, especially when we want to prepare something delicious for our family.
For our viand, we decided to prepare the fish in two different ways. I cooked Gusaw tinola with pechay, while my mother grilled some of the fish. That way, we could enjoy both a warm fish soup and grilled fish for our meal. πβ€οΈ
I was the one assigned to cook the tinola, while my mother took care of grilling the other fish. It's nice when we can share the work in the kitchen. Sometimes, I cook, sometimes my mother prepares something, and sometimes we both help each other. These are just ordinary moments at home, but I appreciate them.
Cooking fish tinola is one way to enjoy fish with soup. I like having soup as part of our meal because it goes well with rice, especially when the soup is still warm.
My mother grilled some of the Gusaw, giving us another option to enjoy it. Grilled fish has its own distinct taste, especially when the outside is nicely cooked. I think it is always good to have different ways of preparing the same ingredient so we won't get tired of eating it the same way.
Aside from our fish viand, my father also bought bananas. πβ€οΈ
We usually enjoy bananas as part of our food at home. They are easy to eat and can be served after a meal or whenever we want a simple snack. Having fruit available is always nice, especially when we want something to eat without preparing another dish.
Living at home with my parents has taught me to appreciate even the simplest things. Every day, we think about what to cook, what food is available, and how we can prepare something for everyone. Sometimes, we get seafood from my father's fishing. Other times, like today, we need to buy fish from the market.
Of course, I am happier when my father catches fish himself because we don't need to spend money buying it. π But fishing is not always easy, and he cannot always catch everything we want to eat. So, when we need to buy food, we do our best to make the most of what we have.
That's all for my simple food sharing today. π
Have a Blessed Friday everyone! ππππππ
