Pinaputok na Tilapya

Pinaputok is a Filipino term which means blast or pop. The reason why this menu is called as such is that since it is wrapped with an aluminum foil together with all the other ingredients, you will hear popping sounds while frying until it is cooked. The need to use a foil is that the creamy combination of the vegetables and oyster sauce will be prevented from mixing with more cooking oil.

Ingredients:
- Medium to large size tilapia
- Lettuce
- Ginger
- Tomato
- Onion
- 5-6 tbsp Oyster sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chili powder (optional)

Procedure:
- cut an aluminum foil good enough to cover the size of the fish
- place the lettuce, make it as the base
- place the ginger, tomato, and onion on top of the lettuce
- add salt, pepper, and chili powder to the fish and put on top of the ingredients
- pour in the oyster sauce
- using the sides of the aluminum foil, wrap the fish enough to cover it
- heat cooking oil in a pan
- deep fry for 5-8mins
- serve and enjoy!


Best with hot rice and Mango juice :)
