INGREDIENTS 1 clove onions, sliced 7 pcs. okra, sliced 3 pcs. red tomatoes, sliced 2 pcs. gabi, sliced 2 pcs. green chili (siling pangsigang) salt , patis, tamarind powder with gabi, 6-8 glasses of water 1 tali kangkong 3 pcs. eggplant, cut into small pieces 1/2 kilo pork liempo, sliced COOKING INSTRUCTION 1) In a big pot, saute tomatoes, onion and sea salt.

Cook for an hour or until the pork is tender and gabi are tender 3) Pour the rest of the ingridients in the pan and cook
