Instructions
- Cut into guavas into halves and using a small spoon, scoop out the seeds.
- In a bowl, combine guava seeds and pulp and 1 cup of the water. Using the back of a spoon, mash to extract pulp and strain in a fine-mesh sieve. Reserve the guava juice and discard the seeds. Set aside.
- Trim about 2 inches from the kangkong stalks and discard. Cut kangkong into 3-inch lengths, separating the sturdier stalks from the leaves. Wash thoroughly and drain well. Set aside.
- In a large pot over medium heat, combine the remaining 6 cups water, onion, and guavas. Bring to a boil.
- Lower heat, cover and simmer until guavas begin to soften.
- Add fish sauce and the extracted guava juice.
- Add milkfish and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes or until almost cooked through.
- Add shrimp and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes or until color changes.
- Season with salt to taste.
- Add kangkong and cook for about 30 seconds or until just wilted. Serve hot.
Notes
- The Mexican cream guavas in this recipe have a thin pale-yellow skin, creamy white flesh, and soft, edible seeds. Some varieties of the fruit, which have thicker flesh and harder seeds, might need to be peeled and cooked longer.
- Use a mix of ripe and still green guavas for a nice balance of sweet and sour taste.
- For extra depth of flavor, replace the water with rice washing.
