BONELESS BANGUS BISTEK ALA POBRE

One of our favorite Filipino dishes is the bistek tagalog. It’s basically a soy sauce stew with lots of white onion as toppings and a generous sourness of kalamansi juice. Kalamansi is a type of lime fruit here in the Philippines that is rich in vitamin C.

The original version of the “Bistek” dish is cooked with sliced Beef tenderloin. But there is a healthier and may I say better option which is replacing the beef ingredients with FISH. The best fish to use with this dish is the Bangus. (milkfish).

Pangasinan province produces the tastiest Bangus in the whole country. Although Bangus from other regions are still of good quality.

So, if you’re planning to visit the Philippines. Try ordering this dish in any of our native restaurants and guaranteed you will like it.

Below is how I cook my version of BONELESS BANGUS BISTEK ALA POBRE.
