Tip

This is cooked with a twist as traditionally you cook it with the fatty pork spareribs intstead of the usa bone in one.

The bone in one is preferred by my family as they believe to be more tasty.

Delicious served with steamed fluffy rice

Chilli is entirely up to you on how much you want to use.

Bicol Express is traditionally very hot, if you follow this one it is fiery but not enough to make you run for water if you like hot food. I sometimes add more in depending on how hot I want it.

There are many variations of Shrimp paste in Asian stores, if you want the real filo version buy the brand Bario Fiesta Bagaoongtmrc_emoticons.) available in most asian shops in the filipino section. If you buy a different version the taste will vary slightly

ENJOY I simply love this dish
