  1. That looks good for potluck or a big crowd gatherings. I will try this recipe and see how it goes. The patis measuring seems like too much, but I guess because you are not adding any salt, the taste must be ok.
    The ham and hotdog already contained sodium/salt, so it might not be a good food to serve for people who have a high blood pressure. So, maybe I will take it easy on the patis...
