I wanted to make this dish for Oneil when we first started dating,. I asked one of my co-workers for the recipe, she didn't have any measurements so told me to do it to taste !! Well I had never made any Filipino dishes before and had no idea what taste I was looking for,so I did my best. Oneil ate it and seemed to enjoy it. He told me many years later that it was the worst thing he'd ever tasted. Needless to say I have made improvements to the recipe since the first time I cooked it. I hope you enjoy it, this is a staple in every Filipino kitchen.

Oh Ya you must serve this with rice
