Sweet and Spicy Dilis

I often experimented with this recipe based on the taste memories I had of my last sweet and spicy dilis snack.



Good thing, balingon or dilis is always available inside the fridge and so as the other ingredients. And making one is very simple, just frying and mixing - it's really that easy.

So here's my very simple recipe which you can tweak to adjust to your own taste. I don't usually put in the measurement for most of the time I just thrown in what ever there is and adjust it during the process.

Sweet and Spicy Dilis Recipe


Ingredients
  • 2 cups Dilis
  • 3/4 cup Sugar, adjust
  • 3/4 Catsup and/or Sweeet & Chili Sauce, adjust
  • 1 Tablesponn Chili Powder, adjust
  • Oil
How to make Sweet and Spicy Dilis
  1. Place oil in a pan and when the oil it hot, lower the flame and fry the dilis.
  2. Add sugar and mix. Wait for it to melt a bit
  3. Add catsup/sweet&chili sauce and chili powder. Adjust the amount of these to suit your taste.
  4. Put the sweet and spicy dilis on a strainer or plate with table napkin to let the oil drip.

Valenciana

Ilonggos really love valenciana because most if not all have grown accustomed of having it in almost all occasions like fiesta, brithdays, reunions and all other occasions thus I love calling it as the "occasional dish".   Basically, " go, grow and glow " dish, it has the carbohydrates, protein and vitamins and minerals in just one spoonful. And it can come in its simplest form with just malagkit rice, pork, chorizo and bell peppers to some fancy with additions like raisins, peas, chicken, hardboiled egg (just garnish though), etc.  Here's the recipe for Valenciana Ingredients 3 cups Glutinous Rice ( malagkit ) 2 cups Pork, sliced 1 cup Pork, Beef or Chicken  Liver, sliced 2-3 pieces Chinese sausage, sliced 2-3 large red bell peppers, sliced lengthwise 1 cup Green Peas 3 small boxes Raisins 2 pcs.Onion, chopped 4 cloves garlic, crushed salt and ground pepper to taste  2 pcs. pork/chicken bouillon/broth cube...

Simple Pochero Ilonggo

POCHERO. The most familiar recipes are the ones stewed with tomatoes (or tomato sauce) or the Cebu variant which is like bulalo or nilaga, but the pochero I grew up with is just very simple. It's just pork cooked with potatoes and/or saba (cooking banana) with kamote tops or pechay. I just love the mild sweetness of the broth brought about by the bananas to the savory broth. Or sometimes, it tends lean more of the tomato based recipe, just without the tomato itself or sauce. The recipe is just very simple - just boil the pork first until tender. Add the "hard" veggies like potatoes, saba, carrots, etc then finally when the leafy veggies when its almost done. Just season it with salt or broth cubes for a savory broth.

Pork Sarciado

This savory and delicious combination of pork ang vegetables is always an extra rice magnet. Much more so if drizzled with hot sauce, a personal favorite. A much simpler version of Pork Menudo, the only difference is the absence of tomato sauce. Just some bread crumbs to thicken the sauce. No need for fancy ingredients either, to give its Spanish origins a gastronomic salute but just in its simplest form, it could already be a hunger satisfier. Now let's begin...
