PINAKBET (FILIPINO MEAT VEGGIE STEW WITH SHRIMP PASTE)
A popular Ilocano dish from the Northern regions of the Philippines. You can omit the bittermelon if you're not a fan, as it is an acquired taste. Authentic pinakbet includes bittermelon in the recipe. If you can't find the salted shrimp paste at your local Safeway, try your friendly local Asian supermarkets. You can also make this a vegetarian dish by omitting the pork.
