MUNGGO is one of the most sought-after viand here at home. My family loves munggo it makes them eat more with steamed rice.
As usual, the best original guinisang munggo viand is with slices of bittermelon.
and ginger.It would be nice if there are ampalaya leaves and its tendrils but the supermarket don't sell bittermelon leaves.
Medicinal effects of Bittermelon & Ginger: Lowers blood pressure and anti-inflammation.
Ingredients for munggo: Canola cooking oil, garlic, onions, slices of pork, shrimps,slices of ginger, salt & ground black pepper, soy sauce, munggo beans (2 cups )(boiled on hot, hot water first until cooked), 2 cups of lukewarm water with chicken broth, sliced bittermelons, or you can use spinach and cilantro if there's no bittermelon available.
Direction for cooking: Saute' all ingredients in your wok until cooked and then add broth to a boil and add the munggo and bittermelon. Watch what you are cooking not to dry up the munggo soup.
Serve hot with steamed rice. Yum!
