I think most of my friends know that my favorite food is KINILAW. I love this dish ever since I tasted it. The raw fish soaked in pure “suka” (vinegar) mixed with spices really suits my taste. I have been eating this since I was in elementary school and up until now.
Kinilaw na Tangigue (Spanish Mackerel)
Traditionally, if you eat kinilaw, you drink cola after eating it. This done to prevent you from having an upset stomach but because I am already immune to this raw fish, I can drink water after eating it. But sometimes, I still prefer drinking cola since it really seals in the flavors and thus making you eat more.
Kinilaw na Tamban (Sardinella)
To know how to make this dish, check out the ingredients and procedure below courtesy of Jacky Abitago.
Ingredients:

- 1 medium cucumber
- Pinch of salt
- 1 medium ginger
- 5 pieces lemon
- 2 pieces hot chili

Procedure:
1. First, you have to clean the fish and cut it into cubes
2. Put it into the bowl
3. Pour the vinegar
4. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze it.
5 Put the sliced onion, sliced tomatoes, ginger, cucumber and salt to taste in the bowl together with the fish
