I learned how to cook laing from my sister-in-law who is from Bicol. I crave for this every now and then but Taro leaves ( gabi leaves) are not available in my place. I tried spinach and it tastes as good as taro leaves so here is my recipe for laing using spinach.
Ingredients:
200 grams Spinach (can be replaced with Taro leaves)
200 grams tofu ( sliced to your desired size)
1 tablespoon ginger strips
1 onion
2 red chili
1 tablespoon shrimp paste ( Bagoong)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
2 cups coconut milk
salt to taste
Procedure:
1. Dry the spinach leaves and cut into small pieces.
2. Fried the tofu and set aside.
3.Saute the garlic, ginger and onion then add the shrimp paste ( bagoong) and chili.
