Qurator's: Hive Top Chef! | Soup
The dish that I'm going to cooked is called "Nilaga" the process is boiling all the ingredients together. That simple, but of course we need to make it special. For a mom of four like me I have so many recipe about soups. It makes my kids healthy and strong.
Ingredients
Pork or Beef (any part)
Sweet camote or potatoes
Corn optional
Bananas
Petchay
Cabbage
Pork cubes
Fish sauce
Water
Pepper corn
Seasoning
Onion
Procedure
Cut and wash all the ingredients. In a pot add the onion, peppercorn, camote and corn. It's hard as the meat so it's better to boil it first. Hubby bought a pressure cooker while it's sale. It's a big help to immediately soften the meat. After it boils I set the timer for 15 minutes. Then I release the pressure. Add the remaining ingredients such as fish sauce, seasoning, broth cubes and the remaining vegetables. Taste and adjust according to taste
For my second soup dish my husband bought some spare yellow fin tuna fish. If it wasn't a spare it surely be pricey. He told me that a tuna fish cause about 800 pesos per kilo or $14. While in the photo the spare parts cost 300 pesos or $5.2 that's a lot of difference. And honestly it was my first time eating the kind of fish. You know that i'm used to eating fish in our water world.
Because his a good cook he made this delicious meal. And the ingredients are onion, ginger, tomatoes, seasoning and freshly picked tamarind. First, he wash all the ingredients. Boil the tamarind and put all the ingredients together put the seasoning and add fish sauce according to taste. And here's the finished product. The tuna is really different from the others so that's why it's so expensive. After we finished eating lunch I wonder when will hubby will cooked this again
My third dish "Sour Soup Shrimp" except for fish we also caught shrimp in water world. With different sizes too. But since my son sell the big shrimp I'll have the smaller version for my today's post. My son made more $21 just by catching shrimp in his barehands. His father told him that if he just started earlier he will earn more money. Many kids also tried their luck I catching shrimp and because nature is kind they all have their part. Hardship is always the key.

1 medium Onion
A piece of Ginger
2 medium Tomatoes

Let's Start

Then the shrimp, I add another one cup of water. Cover with the lid after it boils I add the seasoning, fish sauce and powdered tamarind. Cover again and let it simmer and its done. You can see in the picture that the soup change and turns to red. Its because of the fats and egg of the shrimps.
