I may enjoy the more extravagant meals or feasts at fancy restaurants but at the end of the day I always come home to my simple meal of fish and fresh tomatoes. Smoked fish or fried fish is my fave along with steamed rice. I sometimes put fish sauce or soy sauce on my tomatoes.
Is there a particular meal that you always come home to?

Have you tried to fry the tomatoes and eggs before? It likes the picture showed. It tastes good too.

Yes, we sometimes add tomatoes and onions to our omelette. Delish.

@almostoveryou Oh, is that bangus? It's delicious but the only thing I don't like is it has so many fine bones... Unless it's pressure cooked until the bones are soft and edible...

i mix fish sauce with tomatoes if it's tinapa (smoked fish). but if it's daing na bangus (milkfish soaked in vinegar and garlic then fried) like in your picture, i prefer pairing it with atchara (pickled green papaya).
