INGREDIENTS:
1 kilo tilapia
6 medium tomatoes
1 medium onion
4 cloves garlic
salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cup water
1 large egg
oil for frying

Directions
To prepare the tilapia: once it’s descaled, give it a slight scoring at both sides. Season the whole fish with salt and pepper.
Heat enough oil for frying in a nonstick pan, once hot enough add in the fishes by batches. Flipping each side till it turns golden brown. Once golden, take it off the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, keep only 1 – 2 tablespoons of the oil and sauté the garlic, onion, and tomatoes. Saute till the tomatoes are soft enough to crush. Mix and crush till you get your desired texture. Add in salt, pepper, and sugar (optional) to taste.
Pour in the water, adjusting to a thicker or more liquid-y sauce to suit your preference. Bring to a boil before adding the whisked egg, mixing till it curdles.
Place in the fried tilapias, let it simmer in the sauce for a few minutes or till almost half of the sauce evaporates. Take it off the heat, the sauce thickens as it cools down. Serve hot.
