One of my husband's favorite fish dish, lapu-lapu escabechi, he requested me to cook one yesterday to serve for their Iftar with his friends.


Ingredients:
1 whole medium size Lapu-lapu or any fish
1 large onion, sliced
1 green capsicum, strips
1 red capsicum, strips
1/3 cup ginger, strips
2 ripe tomatoes, sliced thinly
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1/3 cup oyster sauce
3 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. sugar
1/3 cup tomato catsup
2/3 cup chicken broth or water
1/2 tsp. black pepper powder
1 tsp. vinegar
oil enough to fry the whole fish
chopped green onions for garnish

Directions:
1. Salt the fish and fry in hot oil until done. Transfer to a platter and set aside.
2. Take 2 tbsp. from the used oil and heat in a skillet. Saute garlic until lightly brown, add onions, tomatoes and ginger and saute until the ginger are aromatic. Add capsicums, stir for a minute.
3. Add the broth, soy sauce, vinegar and tomato catsup. Bring to a boil.
4. Add the oyster sauce, sugar and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes.
