Hinalang na Manok

April 19, 2009

  

Sobrang Anghang, Sobrang Sarap!!! This is the hinalang na manok that was serve to me during my stay in Bohol.  It is chicken cooked in coconut milk with plenty of chili (bird’s eye pepper). For this culinary experience, native chicken was used that made it more delicious.  This is one of the dish that I can say, the sauce goes very good with hot steamed rice.  The blend of coconut milk and spiciness makes the sauce a viand in itself. “Sarsa pa lang, ulam na”.  It was so delectable that I was able to eat plenty of rice.

 

Hinalang in the Visayas, means “spicy”.  The technique in cooking is similar to chicken curry except that there is no curry powder and this is full of chilis.  Since this was new to me, I had a very sumptuous meal without tinking of diet at least for a while. Hehe!  By the way, It did went well with seafoods.  Hinalang is truly a mouth-watering food that will surely perk you up.  Thanks to my mother-in-law who prepared this dish for me.  She knew that I was fun of eating spicy foods and dishes not new to me.  If you want to have this, make sure you know someone from the Visayas or Minadanao who knows how to cook. I’m pretty sure they know how to prepare this super spicy food.  Hang kaayo bai!!!
