It's lunch time, friends.
Let's have  Pinakbet  ("Pakbet") for lunch!
Goody, this is one of my simple 'lutong-bahay' favorites. ☺


Vegetables are always a healthy idea in cooking so I prepared  Pinakbet  for lunch.
Pinakbet is cooked with pork belly sauteed in garlic & onions, vegetables like squash, okra, eggplant, string beans, & ampalaya (bitter melon), and sauced with shrimp paste.
In cooking Pinakbet, I prefer not to add salt anymore because the shrimp paste is already there to add flavor. ☺
