Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce

This Crispy Bangus is perfect for lent and comes with a delicious Calamansi Butter Sauce that’s so irresistible, you’ll surely drizzle it over rice….

 

The Lenten season has already started and as Christians, most of us practice fasting or abstinence. Some of us will give up eating some kind of food, others will give up their vices. I know that the rules regarding fasting and abstinence has already evolved and some people choose to follow these rules only on Holy Week, especially Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Black Saturday.

Well,  whatever rule you follow, I’m sure this recipe I’m gonna share with you today will help you have a pleasant experience this Lent.

I grew up in a traditional Christian family that gives up eating meat during all Fridays of Lent as a sacrifice. If you have a family like ours who loves eating meaty dishes, then you might be worried about what to cook during Lent. You might think that cooking something without meat wouldn’t be as satisfying.

Well, let me share with you this Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce which I’m sure your family will love.

Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce

We all love boneless Bangus (Milkfish) here at home. So I thought of combining fried bangus and this Calamansi-Butter sauce (sometimes lemon-butter) that’s also favorite, to make this Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce.

The Calamansi- Butter Sauce is rich, tangy, and simply makes any dish you add it to more delicious. It has this milk sarap creamy taste that lets you know it’s made from REAL butter. And it is, because I used Anchor butter to make this sauce.

Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce

It is so easy to do and so tasty that it will easily become part of your every day menu.

Give this Crispy Bangus with Calamansi Butter Sauce a try and I’m sure your family will love it too.

    Both milk fish and quinoa rice look mouthwatering! And that sauce is the killer, Peach. All I need now is some blanched bok choy to go with this delicious dish.

      We eat bangus everytime we go for fish in my family. Bangus is pretty common here in the philippines, so much that sometimes I do not consider eating any other fish XD Point is, it’s pretty good. You should try some someday 🙂
