Ensaladang Amplaya Recipe

Here is a simple recipe that is common to Ilocanos - the Ensaladang Ampalaya. It sounds bitter but tastes great. Not only that, ampalaya has lots of health benefits.

When we say Ensaladang Ampalaya, many thought of the ampalaya fruit. This one uses the leaves instead.

I collected the leaves of ampalaya from my urban garden.

This can serve as a main course paired with fried fish and/or pork green mangoes with spicy alamang or as an appetizer.
