Ginataang Langka with Daing Recipe
The Ginataang Langka Recipe is a tasty, Filipino dish made from Coconut milk and unripe Jackfruit. This dish can have all sorts of varied ingredients added to the dish.
Like in this recipe, we will use Malunggay leaves and Daing, any form of dried, salted fish to make Ginataang Langka with Daing Recipe.
The fish helps give some salty and fishy flavor to the jackfruit, alongside the creamy feel of the coconut milk.
Malunggay also helps not only make the dish look better and tastier, but it also makes Ginataang Langka much more nutritious.
Ginataang Langka is not only tasty, but it is only a great alternative if one does not want to cook with meat or when meat is not available, as the jackfruit has a texture and taste similar to chicken.
The method and preparation of this recipe are almost the same as the Ginataang Langka with Tuna Flakes Recipe.
