If Taal tawilis are the only freshwater fish I now wonder what the ones I buy are from…I shall ask the vendor next time. On cleaning, I just pull the gills out, then soak in salted water for a few minutes. Then, drain, pat slightly dry with paper towels. I lightly dredge in non-glutinous rice flour para hindi masyado pumilansik ang mantika. Lightly salt and pepper after frying.

You are right MM, tawilis is native to Taal and it’s just sad that the lake is becoming toxic.

It’s nice you finally tried it.
For those looking for tawilis within the metro, I regularly buy tawilis at the SM Megamall Supermarket during Sundays, not so sure if they sell it daily. The supply is scarce though, since it is prohibited “daw” to be overfished.

Fried to golden brown delicious!
