The dish of the Tausug people. In Sabah, we only cook with a particular fish, the ikan sembilang, which is a small saltwater catfish with poisonous fins.
The Filipino Tausug has a dish called Tiula Itum, which means soup cooked in black, but Sabahan Tausug only uses Tialam Itum, which is a thick gravy with the black appetizer which is actually burned coconut.
Since these Filipino Tausugs had migrated to Sabah since 1970s, and many had settled in Sabah, their dishes will become part of the Sabahan dishes. Unfortunately, I have not tried a true Tiula Itum and I do not have a sample of it.
Once I have come across those dishes, I shall take its photos in 2D and 3D. In the mean time, you can enjoy the dance Tiula Itum, which is a modern adaptation of the Daling Daling dance of Sabah.
