Pepperoni spaghetti (spicy) with water spinach (kangkong), okra, pea pods, and ground pork meat in Mushrooms Sauce. Actually, those vegetables and pork ground meat were leftovers from Thailanna where we had our Halloween dinner. It was too much, their servings are really too much for one person. So we decided to take it out. Now I made a yummy dish out of it with my pepperoni spaghetti. The whole foodstuff feats to spicy spaghetti. We Need Millions of Imperfect Zero Wasters. Recycling leftovers from yesterday. Throwing away food isn’t just a way of money it is downright shameful. How many of the world’s people don’t have enough to eat?……. Just like in the Philippines. 🇵🇭

LINGUINE in PALABOK SAUCE
Italian meets Filipino. That’s the highlight of this recipe. I cooked linguine with palabok sauce for Jen‘s (niece) birthday dinner instead of traditional Pancit or Sotanghon in the Philippines. For the toppings I had; small octopus, smoked mackerel flakes, mussels with scallions and crunchy fried onions. As a change from the well-known and popular spaghetti, many chefs regularly use the long, but not round, but flat linguine. These very narrow ribbon noodles are also sold under the name Trenette.

The origin of the pasta name Linguine is exciting. The word linguine is something like “little tongue” in Italian. The narrow ribbon noodles are not only sold under different names but can also if necessary be replaced by other narrow ribbon noodles such as the Bavette, for example. The linguine, which are also popularly referred to as linguini, originally come from the Campania region in Italy. Added with Filipino “Palabok” sauce the thick yellow-orange sauce.
YOU NEED…….
500g Linguine
2 small Octopus🐙, boiled

some Fish Sauce or Patis
some Olive Oil
Salt 🧂 to adjust the taste

🇪🇺🇵🇭WHAT‘S ON THE TABLE
Throwback, some of my home food prepping during the time my cousin Gie and her son was with us. During their Europe vacation.
That was linner, the first meal I prepared for my cousin Gie and her son. Oven trout, salad, Sarma ( stuffed cabbage), and knuckle of pork (Stelze) and because we are Filipinos rice is a must!
Here again brekky with boiled Frankfurter, toast bread, strawberry in sour cream, coffee and tea. The time my cousin Gie and her son took their vacation in Vienna. Of course my doggy Mary and Riyad also on the picture.
My spaghetti requested by Noah, Gie’s son (cousin). Bolognese is the sauce I made for them with grana padano cheese plus salad and sliced apples. Someone requested for coffee and tea too.
Food memories brekky a la Pinoy (Filipino) too heavy never again! Imagine; fried rice, longganisa, fried tuyo, scrambled eggs, sunny side egg, and for dipping vinegar with chili spicy of course plus tea and coffee Jesus Christ! What unhealthy life style never again!
