Ginisang Upo, Togue and Kalabasa with Shrimps

I just love cooking a mix and match dish throwing what ever is available in the fridge. This time is another version of the Ginisang Upo at Togue dish that is simple and delicious.




Actually, its just adding kalabasa and getting rid of the pork from the other recipe. Though this one is more soupy, you can adjust it to be more of a stir-fry dish that's perfect on the side.

  • 1 cup tawgi (togue/mung bean sprouts), wash and cleaned

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Salt and Pepper (or shrimp bouillon cubes)
  • 1/2 cup water (adjust)
