  2. I make a similar dish at home too, just without the ground pork and pineapple syrup. Anyhow, the next time I make my fish fillet nuggets (mine are more nugget-shaped than fingers) I'll try and incorporate ground pork to see how me and my family would like it. :) Thanks for sharing this recipe, Papaleng!

  3. So you only use the syrup of the pineapple. I excitedly read through the recipe on how you will actually incorporate the pineapple fruit itself into the fish fingers. :-)

  7. I have tasted and loved fish fingers before and now I wonder if they also included ground pork because if they don't, I'm curious at how your recipe will taste like. The ingredients are easy to find in a grocery store and the procedure is quite easy too. I'll give this a try one of this day.
