Craving for Ginamos
Yup I was craving for Ginamos the other day so I bought at the wet market and stir fry it with tomatoes. Ginamos as what we call it in Visayan is actually a salted small fish that has been kept for several days. I love eating it with rice, cooked banana (saging saba) and green mango.
