Tinolang Tahong




Tinolang Tahong is a delicious and a simple recipe. It is cooked with ginger and some greens. With this recipe I used dahon ng sili also known as pepper leaves. I also added bell peppers and it turned out really good.

You can use any greens desired (malunggay, dahon ng sili or spinach) and add more vegetables like green papaya or sayote.

Give it a try and let me know.
