Kimchi





Atchara is to Philippines : Kimchi is to Korea

This is a fermented dish made from cabbage (in the Philippines). It is usually served along with the numerous ban-chans when dining in a Korean restaurant. It is also readily available in local groceries here in the Philippines.

The one on the photo was from a cousin who happened to partonize a Korean resto somewhere in Cavite. Tastes very, very good- and spicy! Perfect for the cold weather.

Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity!

RECIPE: TKG's Pan-Grilled Maya-Maya With Calamansi Butter Sauce

By Edel San
I chanced upon some fresh-looking Maya-Maya being sold near my daughter's school today so I bought some. I don't really have a dish in mind when I bought it. Maybe fried, sinigang ... And upon checking the fridge and pantry (no more olive oil), I decided to marinate the fish in calamansi to remove the fishy taste. I pan-grilled the fish being careful not to burn it. Then I minced some garlic, cooked it in butter, added some salt and poured the sauce on top of the fish. And its ready to eat. And oh, I also steamed some cauliflower as a side-dish. Bon appetit!
