Bopis Recipe

This Bopis Recipe is a spicy Filipino dish of pork lungs and heart sautéed in chilies, and onions.

This spicy Filipino dish has Spanish origins, but the meaning in its original language, and even region of origin, are now lost.

Classified as pulutan in Filipino cuisine, bopis is served with alcoholic beverages preferably beer. Bopis is also served as a main dish with rice.

NOTE: This bopis recipe is not ideal for people who suffer from rheumatism because of its high uric acid content.

If you want your bopis recipe to have vegetables, you may also add labanos (radish).

Easy Halabos Na Hipon Recipe (With Dipping Sauce)

Easy Halabos Na Hipon Recipe (With Dipping Sauce)

Halabos na Hipon is a Filipino cooking process consisting of fresh shrimp cooked in water and salt. Modern versions of the dish commonly add spices and use carbonated lemon drinks instead of water for a sweeter sauce.

Halabos (also spelled halbus, hablos, or halbos) is a verb meaning “to scald in saltwater” in the Tagalog language.

Halabos is one of the easiest and most common way of preparing crustacean dishes in the Philippines. Traditionally, it only requires boiling whole unshelled shrimp, crab, or other crustaceans in water and a little salt for one to three minutes until they turn reddish-pink. Nothing else is added, and the ingredients are allowed to stew in their own juices. However, modern versions generally use carbonated lemon drinks like Sprite instead of water. Spices may also be added like chilis and garlic. Butter may also be added.

Halabos dishes are usually prefixed by “halabos na”. Examples of halabos dishes include halabos na hipon or halabos na sugpo (shrimp or prawns), halabos na alimango (mud crab), halabos na alimasag (blue swimmer crab), and halabos na ulang (lobster or giant river prawns). A specialty in Zamboanga is halabos na curacha which is made from curacha (the spanner crab, Ranina ranina).

Easy Crispy Pata Recipe

Crispy pata is a popular Filipino dish. The cooking process of this dish takes time but the effort is worth it.

Crispy pata is a Filipino dish consisting of deep fried pig trotters or knuckles served with a soy-vinegar dip. It can be served as party fare or an everyday dish. Many restaurants serve boneless pata as a specialty. The dish is quite similar to the German Schweinshaxe.

Wikipedia

Crispy Pata is known for its tender meat and crispy skin. Before cooking the pork and letting it simmer, remember to make slits on the skin. This is to ensure that all the delicious flavors from the ingredients are infused in the meat. Make sure to also dry the pork thoroughly after boiling, this is the secret to achieving that crisp skin!
