Vegetable Fritter


This is easy to cook and the ingredients are simple and easy to find, I cooked this for few friends who are craving for a Filipino dish called ukoy or okoy.  Since we do not have shrimps I made it like this.

Sinabawang Tilapia

Today we went fishing and we caught some tilapia that's why we decided to cook it in a soup because it is very fresh.

2 cups water
some camote tops ( talbos ng camote)
salt or patis to taste

Procedure:
1. In a pot put the onion, tomatoes, salt and tilpia, then cook over medium heat, simmer for 5 minutes then add the water and bring to a boil.
2. Simmer until cooked then add the talbos ng camote and turn off the heat.
3. Serve it hot.

Corn and Cheese Puto

I love mja blanca with corn and cheese that's why I decided to make a puto with these ingredients to see if it is also yummy. The result is 100% yummy. Try this recipe and let me know.

Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup fresh milk
1/2 cup diced cheddar cheese
1/2 cup corn kernel


Procedure:
1.Combine the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder then sift it.
2. In a mixing bowl combine together the sifted ingredients and milk then mix very well until the batter is smooth in texture. Add the corn and cheese then mix very well.
3. Fill the puto molder with the batter and if you have extra corn and cheese you can put on top for extra beauty of the puto or you can put the batter in a big molder and have a 1 big piece of puto.



4. Steam for 10 minutes if you used the small molder and 20 minutes or until done if you used a big molder, allow to cool before unmolding, then serve.

Note: To avoid sticking, add 1 tablespoon of oil in the mixture then mix well or add a soften butter.
