The "Dakong Disgrasya" Check (Apdo Removal)
Wash the fish parts well. But wait! CRITICAL MISSION: Find the small green sac (bile/apdo). You MUST cut it out carefully.
⚠️ If this bursts, pait kaayo ang food. The cats will STARVE rather than eat it. Sayang lang imo effort!
Pabukal to the Max (Maximum Fishiness Hack)
Boil the fish parts in water. PRO TIP: Don't drown the fish in too much water! Keep the broth CONCENTRATED. While boiling, SMASH the fish heads and bones with your ladle to release the marrow and juices. The cloudier, the better! If the rice isn't fishy enough, they won't eat it.
The Separation (Walay Bones Allowed)
Scoop out ALL solids—heads, bones, everything. Set them aside. We only need the yummy fish water for the rice. Why? Because sharp bones = hospital bills. Dili ta gusto ana.
Mag Luto ug Lugaw + Mash
Pour the Binlod rice directly into the boiling fish water. Cook until wet and mushy lugaw. While waiting, pick the soft meat from the bones you set aside. Mash it back into the lugaw. Throw away the hard bones!
