HI cooking peeps! I've been lurking around for some time here in this section but never get to post a recipe.. Im also a member of Del Monte Kitchenomics Club (the email version), and some other clubs, so that qualifies me as a food-fanatic, i guess...

I just got married and now expecting a baby. This time I'm not climbing the corporate ladder so i hang out at the kitchen a lot of times...

Thanks to those guys who posted original pinoy recipes. As i told myself, i gotta be good at cooking our own recipes first before trying out foreign ones..

Keep 'em good recipes coming!
