Tokwa't Isda, Fish and Tofu

Tokwa't Isda, Fish and Tofu
Tokwa’t Isda is the healthy alternative for tokwa’t baboy which is loaded with cholesterol. For those who are on a low fats food, and of course pork is on the top “no-no” from the doctor but craving tokwa’t baboy for that lugaw or porridge, don’t despair use fish as an alternative for that fatty pork face for tokwa. For best result don’t over fry the fish fillet it should be just quickly fried to maintain the softness of the fish and little bit crisp on the outside.

Ingredients:
Dorry Fish Fillet

1 kilo white fish fillet (any firm white fish)
4 blocks tokwa (firm tofu)
2 medium size onion, chopped
1-2 piece sili, chopped
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup vinegar
1 tsp. sugar
cooking oil
salt

Cooking Procedure:

In a frying pan fry tokwa for 3-5 minutes or until color changes to golden brown, remove from pan and drain excess oil, let cool. Cut fried tokwa into big cubes or serving pieces set aside. Cut fish fillet into big cubes. In same frying pan quickly fry fish for 2-3 minutes or until just golden brown remove from pan and drain excess oil, keep aside. In a bowl mix chopped onion, soy sauce, vinegar, sili, salt to taste and sugar keep aside until ready to serve. When ready to serve toss fried fish, fried tokwa and vinaigrette mixture in a bowl. Serve as side dish for lugaw or with rice.
