Directions
Filipino Shrimp in Coconut Milk,This is a recipe that I invented for my diploma work for high school level. Since I am half Filipino and concerned with health and good eating, I thought it would be interesting to take a filippino recipe (michado, although it has nothing to do with michado now!) and try to make it as healthy and as traditional as possible. I love philippino food and really wanted to keep the essence of filippino cooking in this. As always in filippino cooking, the amounts are approximate, so change as you like! You can also take the mini sweet potato recipe and put it with other dishes. Tell me what you think!,This is a recipe that I invented for my diploma work for high school level.
