SWEET BABY BACK RIBS


I always like to munch meat from a bone.It's so much fun to eat while holding the bone in your hand and just bite the meat off it,ha ha. Call me a cowgirl. Anyway,because of that ribs is one of my favorite food to eat. I tried to browse for some good recipes for ribs and was drawn to this one since I've seen this on TFC,on "Life Pinoy Style" by Ron Bilaro. So I went to there website and I saw the recipe , tried it and I loved how the ribs turned out. My hubby and son loves it because the meat just falls from the bones. My mother in-law tried it,too and she asked for the recipe for it.So thanks to Life Pinoy Style for sharing this recipe. It is now one of our favorite family recipe. You can eat it with sides, like mashed potato, macaroni salad, or for Filipinos like me, with rice. Here is the link to the Sweet Baby Back Ribs. Enjoy!


LECHE FLAN RECIPE

EMBUTIDO RECIPE


Embutido, is a Filipino-style steamed meatloaf, which is filled with slices of boiled egg and sausages on the inside. This is a very good comfort food and is usually eaten with rice and dip in a sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce with calamansi. Here is a recipe I made according to my taste.

CASSAVA CAKE RECIPE


Way back in my high school days, I used to buy Cassava Pudding for recess at the Night Class canteen in NOHS. It is one of my favorites. Living here in the US made me miss eating my favorite foods at home. So I have to find ways to be able to make it. So I tried to experiment and later came up with a recipe that tickles my taste buds, I mean that I like. Cassava Cake is mainly made of grated cassava, milk, sugar, and coconut milk. So here it is:





Ingredients:
2 LBS. grated cassava
1 can coconut milk (minus 6 tbsp. for the topping)
1 cup white sugar
3 eggs
1/4 cup butter
1 can evaporated milk
1 can condensed milk (minus 6 tbsp for the topping)
1 tsp vanilla

FOR TOPPING:

6 tbsp coconut milk
6 tbsp condensed milk
2 egg yolks

PROCEDURE:
1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix all the ingredients (except the topping ingredients) in a bowl.
3. After it is mixed well,put it in a greased baking pan.
4. Bake it in the oven for about 35-45 minutes or until the mixtures dries.
5. On the other hand, mix all the topping ingredients,well. After the cassava is done in the oven, pour the topping and bake it for another 25 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown.
6. Take it out from the oven,let it cool down a little and ready to serve. Eat, eat, eat!!!:)

 For those who are in the US and do not have fresh coconut milk, you can buy coconut milk in cans.
