-------------------My Version of Pansit Sotanghon
Masarap talaga magluto lalo na kapag ikaw ay may inspirasyon. Kapag ikaw ay pago
d, ang pagluluto ay isang paraan para ikaw ay makapagrelax. Gustong gusto ito ng
anak ko kaya palagi ko itong niluluto.
Ang pansit sotanghon ay iba talaga sa ibang pansit kasi sa ibang kulay at lasa n
ito.
Di na ako magpapaligoy ligoy pa eto na ang resipiya:
Pansit Sotanghon
Carrots
Cabbage
Baguio Beans
Bacon
Chicken Breast

Sibuyas
Garlic ( Bawang )
Paminta
Soy Sauce
Sesame Oil
Kintsay
(Optional : Beef/Chicken or Pork Broth Cubes, pork, shrimp, pusit, magic sarap)
Paraan :
iblanch ang carrots, cabbage at beans. Gumamit ng strainer, unahing ilubog ang c
arrots sa mainit na tubig, mga 30 seconds alisin mo na. Ilagay sa plato, Isunod
ang beans, dapat mga 20 seconds lang alisin na agad para di ma over cook. Ganun
din sa cabbage mga ten seconds. Basta siguraduhing di maovercook.. para crunchy
at presko ang dating.

Iboil ang manok, palamiginito.Huwag itapon ang pinagboilan sa manok. Magagamit m

o yan mamaya. I slice ang bacon, ung balat ng manok na galing sa chicken breast
at himayin ang manok.
Sa kawali, iprito ang balat ng manok na galing sa chicken breast, isunod ang bac
on at karne ng manok , isunod ang bawang ,sibuyas, lagyan ng pamintang pino. Hal
uin. Lagyan ng soy, make sure na iadjust ayon sa iyong panlasa, depende ren kasi
kung ilang tao ang ilulutuan mo.

Ilagay mo na sa kawali ung tubig na pinagboilan mo ng manok. tyansahin mo ang da

mi neto depende ren sa dami ng sotanghon na iluluto.
Ilagay ang sotanghon, remember , ang sotanghon parang sponge yan, sisipsipin ung
tubig agad,kaya haluin ng haluin hanggang maluto ang sotanghon.
Ilagay na toppings ang mga gulay o di kaya i halo sa sotanghon habang mainit pa
ito.
