Happy Thursday Hivers!
Since I'm the one who does the cooking at home, whenever I crave something that I know how to prepare, I immediately head to the kitchen and make it, as long as all the ingredients are available.
I'm not really a good cook, but my mom told me that my cooking skills have improved a lot compared to when I was just starting to explore the kitchen. That's a wonderful compliment, especially coming from someone who is already a good cook!
Have you ever experienced craving a particular food so badly that you just couldn't stop thinking about eating it? That happened to me a week ago! Hmmm, I guess it was because of my upcoming period. I usually experience food cravings a few days before my period starts.
And guess what I was craving that time? Bam-i! It's one of my family's all-time favorite dishes. Since all the ingredients were already available in the kitchen, I didn't waste any time. I immediately headed to the kitchen and started cooking!
Bam-i is actually very easy to prepare; it's not complicated at all. All you need to do is sauté the garlic and onions, add the pork, and season it to taste. Then, pour in some water and let it boil. Once it's boiling, add the carrots, followed by the sotanghon and pancit canton noodles. Finally, add the cabbage. And just like that, in less than an hour, I already had my own homemade bam-i ready to enjoy!
Did you know that we Filipinos usually pair bam-i with either rice or bread? Weird, right? They're both sources of carbohydrates, so that's quite a lot of carbs in one meal! I honestly don't know why we do this, but ever since I was a child, that's what I've always seen people do.
Anyway, I was able to satisfy my cravings! That's one of the advantages of knowing how to cook. We don't have to buy food or rely on someone else to prepare it whenever we crave something. We can simply head to the kitchen and make it ourselves. And hey, I ate it with rice, hehe! But don't worry, I made sure to eat everything in moderation.
Thank you for reading and see you on my next blog. Cheers!
