Food is always present when a special day is bound to be celebrated by family or friends. Sometimes it made ordinary days special too of course with the people we love and love us.
For Tatay Dodo's birthday is special to all his family members. We prepare few things for him. Few recipes for the blissful 75th birthday.
First, we have on the line is bola-bola. Bola-bola is a ground pork with carrots and other ingredients mixed together before rolling into your desired size. We intentionally rolled it in small pieces so that we won't have hard time cooking it cause when it would be bigger, bigger time it would consume in frying. We don't want to spend the whole day frying bola-bola
Pansit recipe will never be absent on birthdays. We Filipino believe it is a secret for long life. π
We choose to cook pansit Miki for this occasion since it's requested by the daughter who intitiated the event herself. If you see the plating is so good and of course the taste as well. So what are you waiting for? Let's eat. π
Next is shrimp. We just saute the shrimp together with the other ingredients and then put some sprite and wait as it simmer and then add some salt to taste. Unions was cut to design.
It's one of my favorite recipe whenever I attended celebration I always binge myself eating this one but in this event I wasn't able to taste even one bite huhu.
This fish sinugba was requested as well by an in law of the family because this is one of his favorite. So, we intended to grill some fish for this occasion. Excused us for having unpresentable sit up for this one the plastic was required for the food to not be plague by flies. There's a lot of flies everywhere. Anyways we cut some cucumber for the grilled to look good and it could be a nice combination for the grilled as well.
Next is Humba. Meat pork that is also always present in every Filipino celebration. It is cook in soft, sweet and soury flavor with Laurel leaves and seeds. Filipinos love Humba and never forget to have them during special occasion because aside from the delicious taste, Humba could last for few days. It would not spoil and could be more delicious as days pass.
Buffalo wings is like sweet and sour with a twist. Chicken wings and thighs is well-chosen and fried for this recipe. After frying, the chief make the sauce for the fried chicken. Then, mixed the chicken to the prepared sauce. And a sesame seeds is added after to create more pleasing taste and plating.
The last we have here is fruits and garden juice. We bought fruits for the garden juice as well as the fruits to be displayed. It's my first time to drink garden juice. But this juice has been a traditional drink of the family.
Garden juice is made up of four season Tang juice, a sliced apple, pineapple, mango, orange, lemon grass, karabo and lemon. The karabo and lemon was heated before mixed into the juice.
It's very much refreshing especially when it's cold.
We also have some sweet potato for the people who don't want to eat rice.
There are some recipe that was not cooked by us such as the letchon of course ππ. And this two. The members of the family ordered it themselves.
