BULANGLANG


BULANGLANG

1 piece small green papaya, sliced 
2 cups squash, sliced 
3 medium tomatoes, sliced 
10 pieces small okra
1 cup malunggay (moringa) leaves
4 cloves garlic, lightly crushed
1 thumb ginger, chopped
4 to 6 cups rice washing (the water used to wash or clean rice)
lemon grass (optional)
salt to taste

Boil the rice washing for 3-5 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, and lemongrass. Let it boil for 5-10 minutes. Remove the lemongrass, then add the papaya and squash until they are tender. Add tomatoes and okra. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Put-in the malunggay leaves. Cook for a minute. Season soup with salt and stir. Turn the heat off. Transfer in a serving bowl and that’s it! Enjoy Bulanglang!

Note: If you cannot find Moringa leaves, replace this with spinach, or kangkong (swamp cabbage) leaves. You can also use watercress as a substitute.
