My Weekend Journal

This is a one-dish meal with fish and vegetables. This meal is a practical way of providing good nutrition for the whole family. The fish in this dish is a good source of protein, while the upo is a natural source of iron, calcium and B vitamins. This is so easy to prepare and it is light for my pockets. :) Sinabawang Upo and Salted Fish Ingredients: 2 tbsp cooking oil 1 thumb ginger, sliced 1 tbsp crushed garlic 1/4 cup sliced onion 2 cups shredded salted fish (whole salted fish, soaked in water for 2 hours then shredded) 3 cups cubed, seeded upo 1 liter water 1 11g chicken broth cube 2 cups malunggay leaves Procedure: Heat oil.
