Suam na Kalabasa at Hipon

The cooking method my second version Suam na Kalabasa at Hipon or Kinalabasang Hipon is basically the same with the usual Pinoy vegetable dish wich involved sautéing the meat or seafood with the the aromatic ingredients, For today’s dish I used large size shimps suited with the aromatics garlic and onions before adding the vegetables for this particular one kalabasa. The soupy dish consistency depends on one’s preference. I like my suam dish thicker and chunkier, just add more broth or water if you really want a runny soup dish that you can sip. Here is the recipe of my version of Suam na Kalabasa at Hipon, Kinalabasang Hipon.

Ingredients:

1/2 kilo medium size shrimps, pre-cooked
1/4 medium size squash, peeled, de-seeded, sliced
1 packet baby spinach
3-4 cloves garlic chopped
1 small size onion, chopped
1 small size tomato chopped
1/4 cup fish sauce
salt to taste
cooking oil
