Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 1 whole bangus (milkfish), 1.25 lbs, cleaned and butterflied; 3 green mangoes, peeled and julienned; 1 cucumber, halved lengthwise and bias-sliced; 0.5 red onion, thinly shaved; 2 Thai bird chilies, thinly sliced; 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, torn; 0.25 cup fresh mint, torn; 0.75 cup unsweetened coconut cream; 0.5 cup fresh calamansi juice (or lime); 2 calamansi, halved; 1 tablespoon sea salt; 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper; 2 tablespoons neutral oil

A whole butterflied bangus is griddled until its skin crisps and the flesh stays creamy within. It's paired with a vibrant kinilaw of green mango, cucumber, and fresh herbs tossed in calamansi vinegar and coconut cream, topped with a dusty, umami-rich toasted calamansi powder that shatters between the teeth.
