It's Monday again...and I hope your week is off to a good start!
Today, I want to share with you a very simple Filipino dish that my mom used to cook often because it's so easy to prepare and is really very economical. It's simply pechay (a green leafy vegetable which is the Filipino Bok Choi) sauteed with ground pork. In the Philippines, pechay is available in the market all year long. It is also one of the common vegetables that can be found in many backyard gardens, so you can buy it really cheap. But cheap as it is, it is packed with nutrients! It is rich in Vitamins A & C and in folate too. It also has small amount of calcium, iron, protein, niacin, thiamine, riboflavin, vitamin B-6 and Vitamin K. Pechay has that crisp and mild sweet taste that make it so good in soups and stir-fries.
This Ginisang Pechay that I have for you is the simplest way of cooking it. Just like my mom, I enjoy cooking this nutritious and tasty dish! With just a bundle of pechay, a little ground pork and some spices, this will be ready in no time! You should try it!
