Ginisang Munggo with Salmon Belly. Have you been wondering how to cook those salmon belly strips that are usually sold at discounted prices? What I do is deep fry it till crisp and add them to my mung bean soup, ginisang munggo. They are good substitute to pork or may be used with the meat. As to my other mung bean recipe cooking is basically the same.

I always wanted my mung bean cooked till the beans are disintegrated to form a thick soup dish. As much as possible I try to remove the bean shells that usually float at the center of the boiling beans by scooping them out. For this recipe I also added some bitter melon tops/leaves, I like the bitterness the ampalaya leaves.
