Kinamatisang alumahan (striped mackerel) or fish in general is one of the simplest and known traditional fish recipe in the Philippines. It may not be seen on the menus of Filipino restaurants, but this has been a common dish on a Filipino table back in the day.

Sadly, younger Filipinos (maybe aged 25 and below) don’t get to enjoy this simple dish as much due to the abundance of fast food restaurants. But if you will ask someone older (especially those who have been living abroad), this is one dish in their cravings list.
