Tinolang Manok (Chicken Ginger Stew with Vegetables)
Tinolang Manok or Nilagang Manok (Chicken Ginger Stew with Vegetables) recipe is the filipino food dish that I was planning to cook when I arrived here in Canada. Tinolang manok recipe is a filipino food that is easy to cook but during that time, I don’t know where to buy filipino ingredients specially papaya, sayote, chili leaves or malunggay and I thought that I couldn’t cook filipino food dishes anymore.
But as I got familiar to places here, I’ve notice that cooking in Canada is not that difficult, as I have taught before. We even travel for an hour from our place just to buy filipino food ingredients. These filipino food ingredients are usually sold in Asian stores but some are not that often displayed. So, looking for a substitute is my next best option. Like this tinolang manok recipe, when I went to my favorite Asian store, the frozen malunggay or the chili leaves that I notice before are not there to be found, so I just used the spinach because they are abundant and it was recommended by a friend of mine.
Cooking away from your native country is challenging but enjoyable, especially when you are with your love ones. Happy Cooking!

Pinakbet or Pakbet (Meat Vegetable Stew with Shrimp Paste)
Pinakbet or Pakbet is one of the Filipino recipes that I love to cook and a dish that my hubby likes to eat. He’s very fond of eating any kind of food recipes that contain vegetables. No matter how it was prepared and cooked. It is very easy for him when it comes with vegetables.
Growing up until college, I’m very picky when it comes with vegetables. I’m not fond of eating vegetables until I’ve met my hubby. He taught me how to eat and the benefit of eating this type of food. Slowly, I’ve learned to love and appreciate the taste of vegetables like this pinakbet. I remember then eating out on a date he preferred to choose food dishes with vegetables. He wanted me to learn to eat vegetables. It sounds funny but its true. Being with him, with the type of food he eats, I have no choice but to learn to love and appreciate the kind of foods he eats, specially this Filipino food.
Learning on things that my hubby loves especially on foods is what I enhanced the most. As the saying goes- “The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach”. I’ve got the chance to learn more of vegetables recipes here in Canada. Away from home, we missed a lot of filipino comfort food. Pinakbet, an authentic Filipino dish is one of them. I also like Pork Chopsuey,Repolyo Guisado (Sautéed Cabbage), Togue Guisado (Sautéed Bean Sprouts), Sayote Guisado (Sautéed Chayote) and many other Filipino veggie dishes.
Thank God that there are Asian stores here where we can find some of our vegetables grown back home.

Lumpia Recipe (Lumpia Shanghai)
In Filipino, lumpia are eggrolls that are deep-fried like a wrapped stick of meat. Lumpia is aspring roll filled with ground or finely mince of pork, beef or vegetables then served it with sweet and sour sauce. Sometimes I call this recipe lumpia shanghai.
This lumpia recipe or lumpia shanghai is one of the filipino recipes that I usually make, whenever we have a party or get together with friends, especially filipino friends, at home. One time, I was busy cooking filipino recipes, and one of them is this lumpia and my friend arrive early and help me in the kitchen. She notices that I my lumpia wrapper won’t stick together whenever I cook. I’ve tried everything from water, to egg wash and other type of paste but still no avail, the wrapper still broke loose.
Since she is also a good cook; she gave me the technique in making these wrapper sticks together. And guess what she told me, just used the egg white as a paste in binding this wrapper together. And it works! Since then, my filipino lumpia shanghai servings looks better and taste good.
