Monggo with Tuyo Recipe (Mung Beans with Salted Fish)

I think that using bottled tuyo for this Monggo with tuyo recipe is just perfect because the fish has the right amount of saltiness and the fish can be eaten with the bones. Yes, you read it correctly – the fish is soft enough to the point that it can be eaten without segregating the meat from the bones.
