BIRINGHE

 

It is one of the favorite dish of Kapampangan. My mother loves this and it is only being cooked during “fiesta” (feast) in our “barangay”. It is somehow resembles like Paella or Arroz Valenciana made of glutinous rice but cooked in coconut milk. It is also cheaper I think compared to the other two I’ve mentioned.

 

I hope that you will enjoy this recipe.
