Ginisang Patola with Misua

Before my mood for documenting my cuisine specialties expires, let me tell you about a recent favorite dish of my son. He likes soup generally, which I mix with vegetables and rice for more nutrition. He doesn't mind the vegetables but his appetite for rice is quite sporadic. Everyday, I would plead him to eat carbohydrates, be it bread, noodles, or rice, because I'm always worried he's not getting enough of this, just look at his thin built. Anyway, here's a recipe that he loves so much.

Ingredients:

Patola, sliced in quarters

Garlic, chopped 

Onions, chopped

Misua (Egg noodles)

salt & pepper to taste

2-3 cups of water

1. Saute garlic and onions

2. Add in patola

3. Add some water then put a little salt and pepper to taste

4. Add the misua

5. Simmer for a few minutes until noodles are cooked.

6. Let cool a little before serving.

For dinner, he finished this bowl and asked for another serving of about the same amount as this. Yahoo!
