Paksiw na Pompano with Ampalaya

Paksiw is a very common dish in the Philippines especially in the province. I could still remember my dad would always want my mom cook Paksiw.

It's an "ulam", dish that is mainly cooked with vinegar and ginger. I personally love paksiw! the sauce is so good - it taste "maasim" and manamis-namis.
