Chicken Barbecue in Pandan Leaves

Bago kami pumunta ng Picnic Grove sa Tagaytay City, dumaan kami sa Hypermarket in Pasig para bumili ng pagkain. We passed by the meat section and we saw this Chicken Barbecue in Pandan Leaves. Dahil curious kaming lahat sa lasa dahil kakaiba, kumuha kami para lutuin sa Tagaytay.

While cooking, you can smell the aroma of the pandan leaves. Ang bango, nakakagutom! Nung tinikman na namin, nanonoot yung lasa ng pandan dun sa chicken meat na parang kalasa na ng "tahong". Masarap naman, medyo dry nga lang dahil siguro matagal niluto.

I tried searching the net for available recipe and I found out that the Thais has their own version of this: Thai Pandan Chicken Wings. The marinade is made up of coconut milk, soy sauce, oyster sauce and other spices. All the ingredients are available in the market. I also found out that you can also fry this one.

I can't wait to make my own Chicken Barbecue in Pandan Leaves, I'll let you know soon.

Beef Dumplings

This was my first time to cook dumplings and I was so happy that it turned out pretty well. The ingredients was almost the same as that of making siomai, it just so happened that I used beef instead of pork. Well, you can also use shrimp if you want or even fish.

Just follow the instruction in making the siomai fillings in my other post. What makes it different from siomai was the wrapper. I did not make the wrapper, I just bought it in supermarket because I don't have time to do it. Then after putting the filling in the wrapper, steam it for about 30-45 minutes.

I also made a special chili-garlic sauce, but it will take another post to teach you that.
