Ginisang Mais at Hipon

What did I have for lunch? Ginisang mais at hipon! This is a favorite in our household so I decided to share it here. Ginisang mais is a very simple and easy dish to make. It is very delicious and nutritious too. It is worth giving a try! 


You will need 8-10 cobs of white corn (lagkitan) - grated, garlic, onion, tomatoes, pork, petchay (ampalaya or malunggay leaves can also be used), labanos (raddish), shrimp (if preferred, peeled and deveined).


In a pan, boil the pork in a little water. Brown the pork on its own fat. Saute the garlic and onion. Add the tomatoes and squish it when it is cooked. Add 3 tablespoons of fish sauce. Add the grated corn. Mix well. Add the shrimps. Pour 6-8 cups of water (depending on how much you want. Adjust the taste by adding salt). Bring to a boil until corn and shrimps are cooked. Add the labanos and petchay. Simmer for 5 minutes.


Perfect as soup or with rice. Can also be served with fried fish.
