Ingredients:
- 1 whole deboned milkfish, boiled and shredded
- 1 large red onion, finely chopped,
- 1 whole garlic, minced
- 1 large carrot, finely chopped
- 3 whole eggs, beaten
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- half cup breadcrumbs
- 4 tbsp. flour
- 2 tbsp. paprika (optional)
- salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
1. Mix well all ingredients in a bowl and form into a nugget shape.
2. Dust each nugget with flour to avoid sticking from the pan and to lessen oil splash.
3 In a frying pan, heat enough oil and fry nuggets until golden brown. Do not crowd the pan so that each nugget will be cooked properly. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
4. Place on a serving dish and enjoy it with your favorite dipping sauce.
Makes 25 medium-sized nuggets.

You can recreate this dish with other fish like tuna, blue mackerel scad, tilapia or dory, and others. This is one of the dishes you will prepare if you're tired of the usual sinigang na bangus, paksiw na bangus, fried bangus, sarciado or bangus in tausi.
I put a lot of veggies on this dish because I want it to be healthier since the process of cooking is deep frying. You can have your kids eat veggies with this dish without them noticing it. and maybe they might think it's chicken nuggets like my daughter. 😂😂
This dish is a bit tedious because of the chopping and shredding which consumes most of your time doing but it's all worth it once you have that bite. I enjoyed my fish nuggets with banana ketchup with mayonnaise or sweet chili sauce.
Your family will definitely love this. Share your recipes with me and let's all enjoy cooking. 😋😋😘
