Fish
What is this food?
Sinarapan (dried anchovy/small fish), a protein-rich dried fish commonly used in Filipino cooking (often sautéed, fried, or added to dishes for flavor).
Why it matters to health
Sinarapan is a good source of protein, which helps keep you full and supports muscle maintenance—useful for your daily 3 meals plus 1–2 snacks. It also has some fat (about 7.7g per 100g), including saturated fat (about 1.16g). Since it’s dried, it’s typically used in smaller amounts, so pairing it with plenty of vegetables and balanced carbs helps you get the benefits without overdoing the fat.
Healthier tips
- Use a small serving: start with about 1–2 tablespoons (or a small handful) per meal, then add more veggies or rice/vegetables as needed.
- Balance your plate: pair with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, talong, pechay) and a sensible portion of rice or other carbs.
- If you’re sautéing, go easy on oil; try dry-sautéing first, then add a little oil only if needed.
- For snacks, avoid making it the main snack every time—keep it as a flavor/protein add-on to meals.
- If you have high blood pressure, be mindful of salty preparations; choose less salty versions when possible.
