Daing na Bangus

Every time I see the word bangus, I giggle and accidentally read Bang Bus.
Bangus is also known as milkfish and is eaten for breakfast in the Philippines. You can find bangus deboned at any Asian market for relatively cheap. I payed $3 for mine. They come plain and already marinated. If you buy a plain bangus, marinate it overnight with a 1/4 cup of vinegar and a couple of minced garlic cloves. Then simply fry for 5 minutes each side until crispy. Serve with garlic fried rice and fried eggs.
