I used pork mince for this but you can also use sliced pork belly or pieces (simmer in water first to soften.

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare ahead: boil squash, season and then mash/pureé.

Vegetables to slice: eggplant, okra, long or green beans, squash are the traditional ingredients. I added sliced cabbage and moringa leaves and pureéd the squash instead of adding whole pieces.

In a sauce pan, sauté onions then garlic in oil until fragrant.
4

Add pork mince. Season with salt and pepper. Add few drops of Knorr soy seasoning. Sauté until meat changes color.
5

Sauté in in your sliced vegetables.
6

Add your fresh coconut milk or powder mixed in water. Mix in your squash pureé. Cover and simmer a few minutes.
7

Taste and adjust accordingly (more coconut milk or squash or salt?) Add your moringa leaves. Mix in well. Simmer until eggplants, okra and beans are cooked. Serve with rice.

Over wild rice. I substituted corn and carrots for okra, eggplant, and green beans. I planned to use green beans but misplaced them. Also, I smoked pork chops and diced 2 up for the meat. Used the other two as back-up Incase this went badly. However, this was really very good. We are trying new things during lockdown and this was very very good.

Squash with coconut milk (ginataang kalabasa) Squash with coconut milk (ginataang kalabasa)

Coconut milk is a very common ingredient in Asian cooking and I just love dishes made with it! It adds richness and creaminess to the food.

Kabocha Squash Simmered in Coconut Milk - A Taste of the Phillipines Kabocha Squash Simmered in Coconut Milk - A Taste of the Phillipines

This is "ginataang kalabasa," my favorite Filipino dish. It goes well with rice, but I recommend serving this with bread.You can really enjoy the good combination of kabocha squash and coconut milk. If you cook it too much, the kabocha squash will become syrupy and melt away. So, make sure to cook so that the kabocha squash is slightly firm and not falling apart. Recipe by Hoink

Green Beans in Spicy Coconut Milk (Filipino Gising-Gising) Green Beans in Spicy Coconut Milk (Filipino Gising-Gising)

"Gising" in English means "Wake up". This dish will certainly wake you up with its spicy coconut sauce and chilies. It's usually made with pork mince but I went for the healthier option, ground beef.Recommended for chili lovers. ;)

Chicken & Vegetables in Tamarind Broth >> Filipino Sinampalukan Chicken & Vegetables in Tamarind Broth >> Filipino Sinampalukan

Soup scooped over rice, that's how we like it! Try this healthy and light dish especially on chilly days. Although we eat it during summer too. HeeeheeYou can get a Tamarind soup base (Knorr) at Asian or Filipino shops or you can also use the Thai Tamarind paste :) I have not tried it with Lemon or Lime, I think it would work, as the soup needs to have a hint of acidity/sourness...lemme know?#veggies

Butternut Squash in Coconut Milk Butternut Squash in Coconut Milk

🧡Tip: Add seasoning at the end to shorten the cooking time. If sugar is added too early, it can slow down the cooking process. 😆🌟😋 Don't worry about it not being sweet enough, as the natural sweetness comes from the butternut squash itself.

Pork Ribs & Water Spinach in Tamarind Broth - Filipino Sinigang Pork Ribs & Water Spinach in Tamarind Broth - Filipino Sinigang

Very easy to make, just buy tamarind soup mix (see pic) in Asian/Filipino stores. But when I was a kid, I'd see my mom squeezing out the juice from real tamarind fruits just to make this dish. It was my favorite dish as a child.Choose pork cuts with bones, as this makes the broth richer.
