Yesterday afternoon we dropped by at the asian market (Seafood City) at Tukwila, and I got some yummy Filipino products. I got some produce like bittermelon (ampalaya) and kangkong (water spinach). I only get to buy these veggies in an Asian market thus I rarely get to prepare and eat them. To add more yummyness to the kangkong, I also prepared lechon kawali( fried pork belly) and garlic chips. I planned to prepare asian food this week (poor hubby) to make use of my asian goodies!
