Binagoongang Baboy or Pork in Shrimp Paste is a Filipino Pork dish that is perfect to eat with lots and lots of white rice. The name of this dish literally means pork in shrimp paste or pork cooked with shrimp paste. “Bagoong” is a Filipino (Tagalog) term for Shrimp paste, while pork is called “baboy”.


I usually have this for lunch and I also make many versions of this dish — some versions us hot chili peppers, “for Abi”… and there are the sweet and salty version. This binagoongang baboy recipe (also called pork binagoongan) is a simple non-spicy version. I added fried eggplants to help balance the flavor — this means that it can prevent us from eating too much rice.


I am using cooked shrimp paste for this recipe. You can use the ready-to-eat-shrimp paste that comes in bottles. Barrio Fiesta and Kamayan are good brands.Binagoongan Baboy - Kawaling Pinoy

Seafood green onion pancake

 Seafood green onion pancake maangchi’s recipe Some tips when making these pancakes: • For a vegetarian version, skip the seafood and egg and use vegetable stock. • The batter should be runny, because thick batter will clump when you cook it and your pancake won’t turn out well. • While cooking, press down and poke the pancake to make some gaps in between the green onions. You should see some steam coming up through the gaps, that means the green onions are being cooked nicely. • This pancake is too heavy to toss up and flip, so don’t try it! You’ll need a big spatula to turn it over. • Be sure to make the dipping sauce, that’s the best way to enjoy it! Ingredients   Serves 2 • ½ cup all-purpose flour • 1 tablespoon potato starch(corn starch) • ½ teaspoon kosher salt plus a pinch of salt • a pinch of ground black pepper • ¾ cup stock (anchovy kelp stock, chicken stock or vegetable stock), or water • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil • 12 green onions, roots and tops trimmed to 8 to ...
