Food Recipe

What is Laing?

Laing na Gabi or simply Laing is a type of Filipino vegetable dish. Taro leaves are sliced and dried for a few days before being cooked in coconut milk. Pork is a common ingredient added to this dish. I used pork shoulder for this recipe. Pork belly will work too.

Ingredients:

4 ounces Golden Delights Dried taro leaves

2 packs Knorr Ginataang Gulay Recipe Mix 40 grams each

½ lb pork sliced into ¼ inch thick pieces

5 pieces Thai chili pepper

5 cloves garlic crushed

2 thumbs ginger crushed

1 piece onion sliced into thin strips

5 cups water

How to cook:

Prepare the gata by combining Knorr Ginataang Gulay Recipe Mix with 5 cups water. Stir until the powder completely dilutes.
Arrange pork, garlic, onion, and ginger in a pot. Pour 3 ½ cups gata. Put on a stovetop and apply heat. Continue to cook for 10 minutes after the liquid boils.
Add Golden Delights dried taro leaves. Cover the pot and continue to cook until the liquid is almost gone.
Add chili peppers and then pour remaining coconut milk. Stir and continue to cook until the liquid completely evaporates.
Transfer to a serving plate. Serve with rice!
