Ginataan


Ginataan is a Filipino term for food cooked with coconut milk. This dish has different variations. It is a dish mixed with lots of different ingredients some may put fewer ingredients or more but it really depends on what they want, while some only make ginataang mais which is sticky rice and corn cooked in coconut milk. It takes time to make this because they need to prepare all the ingredients before they can cook it. This is one of the most famous dishes in the Philippines. This dish is mostly eaten for an afternoon snack (merienda).
Ingredients:
• 250 grams of sticky sweet rice flour
• 6 saging na saba or bananas sliced
• 1 can of coconut milk
• 250 grams of ripe langka or jackfruit (fresh or canned)
• 6 pandan leaves for more flavor or 1 tsp vanilla
• 200 grams cooked tapioca balls or sago
• 225 grams sweet potato or kamote cubed
• 300 grams or white sugar
• 225 grams of taro root crops or gabi
• 1 can of coconut cream
To make this dish, you must first combine the rice flour with 250 ml water and form it into small balls (bola-bola). Then you must place the coconut milk into a casserole and bring to a boil. When the coconut milk is already boiling you may already add the tapioca balls (sago), sweet potatoes (kamote), taro root crops (gabi). Then cook it for 5 mins. You must stir constantly to avoid the ingredients from sticking to the bottom of the pan or sticking to other ingredients. After 5 mins, you may now add the saba, jackfruit and sticky rice balls. To know if your dish is ready the sticky rice balls should be floating to the surface. When ready you may already stir in the sugar and the coconut cream for a tastier snack. Now, your dish is ready to serve.
