paksiw na tambakol

Prepare the Fish:

• Clean the tambakol and cut it into steaks. Rinse under cold water and drain.
  

Marinate the Fish (Optional):

• For added flavor, marinate the tambakol in vinegar, garlic, and a bit of salt for about 15-30 minutes.
  

Cook the Base:

• In a pot, combine the vinegar, water, sliced onions, garlic, ginger, and long green chili peppers. Bring to a boil.
  

Add the Fish:

• Once the mixture is boiling, gently add the tambakol steaks to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
  

Simmer:

• Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the flavors meld. Avoid stirring too much to prevent breaking the fish apart.
  

Add Vegetables (Optional):

• If using, add the sliced eggplant and bitter melon to the pot. Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
  

Season:

• If desired, add soy sauce for additional flavor and sugar to balance the sourness. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  

Serve:

• Once cooked, serve the Paksiw na Tambakol hot over steamed rice, making sure to spoon the sauce and vegetables over the fish.
