Grilled tuna belly
My husband went all the way to Farmer’s Market in Cubao, Quezon City two days ago to buy tuna belly and tuna panga (jaws) for grilling for yesterday’s lunch. December 12th is our wedding anniversary and we hosted a simple lunch party at home. We haven’t had enough family reunions of sorts since we moved to the suburbs and our 13th wedding anniversary seemed to be the perfect “excuse”.
The food preparation had been going on since Friday. I cooked the chicken, tomatoes and pineapple stew and the sauce for the baked spaghetti on Friday, and the beef embutido on Saturday. A new variation for my earlier vegetable and apple salad and the grilled tuna belly were prepared an hour before lunch yesterday.

We decided not to grill the tuna panga anymore since there seemed to much food already.

Con, do you put the belly in foil or just put it straight on the grill?
This was oven-grilled. I laid the belly on a piece of foil just so it would be easier to lift and transfer to a platter.
