How to luto (Cooking Steps)
1. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Let it sit for about 15 minutes para mas masarap ang taste, charot!
2. Heat the oil in a pan. Sauté the onions, garlic, and ginger until fragrant. Wag masyadong sunog ha, baka maging bitter!

5. Add the fish and simmer gently until cooked through, about 10-15 minutes. Wag mo masyadong pakialaman, baka masira ang texture, teh!
6. Add the chilies (optional) during the last few minutes of cooking. For extra spice, feel free to add more, darling!
7. Remove from heat and serve hot. Perfect with steamed rice, of course!
Tips
