LP18 – Grilled Vegetables
It is time for Lasang Pinoy again, and for this 18th round our host is Toni of Wifely Steps who chose this month’s theme of vegetables! Whether you love them or hate them, we will be writing about Filipino or Filipino inspired vegetable dishes. In Our Kitchen, vegetables are a no brainer. Any will do, cooked or not, in any which way. I think our favorite way though is AS IS, vegetables that are as close to their natural flavors as possible; that is why salads, simply dressed are so popular at our table. Here are some ‘close-to-traditional’ (since I don’t ever do anything the authentic way) vegetable dishes that have been published on this blog previously.Vegetable AdoboPinakbet TagalogAmpalaya (bittermelon) with EggsKamote SaladGising-GisingGinisang Sayote These are variations on the theme or Filipino … Read entire article »

LP 17- Eggs, let me count the ways….
For this round of Lasang Pinoy, I decided to gather all the egg recipes that have been sitting waiting to be written up. This round,hosted by Alfbeercan of Eat Matters is all about eggs! How many ways can you do egg? Probably too many to count. The egg is probably the most versatile food product there is. It can go from delicate to hardy, from simple to sublime as easily as water pours from plastic to crystal and vice versa. Eggs can be served for breakfast, lunch and dinner, even dessert! Not many food items can claim that. So is it any wonder that my photobucket, upon review is peppered with diffent versions of egg dishes? Here are a few of my favorite ways with eggs: These are all variations of the … Read entire article »

Sassy Sarciado
I call this Sassy Sarciado because it is based from the Pinoy Cook’s recipe. From the comments on her post, I figured out that the type of meat she referred to as ‘batok’ (loosely translated as nape-or-back-of-the-neck) is commonly known here as chuck. Here is my version. One thing I hate to do is wash dishes, so if you’re a regular reader of this blog, you will know how I like one-pot meals. This certainly qualifies as that. It could be a meal by itself, but also great over rice or with some hearty fresh-baked bread.3 lbs Beef chuck, sliced into pieces 1/4 inch thick1/2 of a head of garlic (6-10 cloves), chopped2 onions, sliced6 roma tomatoes, diced2 Tablespoons tomato paste2 bay leaves2 cups frozen Mixed Vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)6 small … Read entire article »
