    Ginataang Mongo or Guinataan Rice with Mongo

    Share

    I am sure all of you enjoy feasting on comfort food. One of my fondest childhood memory is eating Ginataang Mongo. The flavor of toasted mongo and the malagkit is quite distinct. With the rainy season upon us, a hot bowl of ginataang mongo is dish that truly delights my children. Here is my recipe.

    Paella a la Valenciana

    Share

    I very rarely prepare Paella because it entails so much preparation. Twenty five years ago, my sister shared me this Paella, Filipino Style recipe and it seemed simple to prepare. Until a year ago, that’s the only Paella recipe I ever cook. Apparently, the recipe is just similar to Paella a la Valenciana, the difference is in some ingredients. Paella is tasty because of the flavors that seep through the rice grains from all the ingredients mixed into the rice. Paella a la Valenciana is just as similar in taste as my Paella, Filipino Style. The Paella a La Valenciana recipe I am sharing is not exactly the same as the original recipe from the typical, rich rice dish from Valencia, Valencia happens to be located on the east Mediterranean coast of Spain. Even though one can taste this rice-dish all over Spain and even world-wide, its true origin is the area of Valencia and Alicante.

    Ingredients

    1/2 kilo pork tenderloin
    500 grams chicken breast
    1/2 kilo large shrimps
    salt and pepper
    1/2 cup Olive Oil
    3 large sized crabs
    2 cups clams (halaan)
    1 cup mussels (tahong)

    1/2 teaspoon of sweet red paprika
    4 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 onion, chopped
    1 green or red bell pepper, sliced into 1 inch pieces
    1 cup string beans (sitaw), sliced into 1 inch pieces and blanched
    3 chorizo de bilbao, sliced thinly
    3 cups rice, American Variety or long grain rice
    1 can tomato paste ( around 70 grams)
    6 cups clam broth (used for boiling the clams)
    1 small laurel leaf
    salt and pepper for seasoning
    1/4 teaspoon saffron , mixed with 1 tablespoon water
    1 cup green peas
    1 pieces pimiento (cut into 1 inch squares)
    2 hard boiled eggs, sliced for topping

    Arroz a la Cubana

    Share

    Wikipedia says that Arroz a la cubana, means Cuban-style rice. Maybe the Philippines version came from our Spanish ancestors. The Philippine version consists of rice; ground beef sauteed with onions, garlic, tomato sauce, diced potatoes and diced carrots; a fried egg and a native plantain (saba), sliced length-wise and fried. I love dishes with anything that contains “saba” so here is a simple recipe I want to share with you.

    1/2 cup ground pork
    1/2 cup ground beef
    1/4 cup raisins
    2 cloves garlic
    1/4 cup onion , sliced
    1/3 cup tomatoes, sliced
    4 saba bananas
    salt and pepper to taste
    cooked rice
    eggs

    This isn’t an original recipe. My sister got it from an American cookbook. Spanish rice pairs so well Chicken Cannelloni. This was very popular in our home in 1978 to 1980. I can just taste it now!

    4 strips of bacon
    1/2 cup thinly-sliced onion
    2-1/2 cups peeled, cubed tomatoes
    1/4 cup green bell pepper, cut into strips
    2 tsps. salt
    1 tsp. paprika
    1 clove of garlic, minced
    dash of pepper
