Ginisang Ampalaya

Ulamin, wag ugaliin… Ang Ampalaya.. Bow.  Syempre hindi talaga masaya pag bitter tayo sa buhay kasi di lalapit sa atin ang blessings, diba?

Anyway, this is my most hated ulam when I was kid. Why? Because I can taste even the tiniest bitterness no matter how tasty my mother cooks this. These days — it’s one of my favorites — because I know how healthy it can be. And no matter what you say, this just tastes delicious to me. My week won’t be complete without Ginisang Ampalaya in it. Plus it’s the easiest vegetable dish to cook so this can be an easy side dish to any meat dish even on your busiest day of the week.
