TORTANG TALONG
Tortang Talong have a special place in my heart as this dish reminds me so much of my college days in the Philippines. This is my favorite and so as my boarding mate’s as this is the most decent dish among the cheapest ones available at the eatery near our boarding house as our landlady wont trust us enough to let us cook in the boarding house. Me and my boarding mates are friends in high school, lived in the same town and we go home every weekend with tight weekly budget. So every time we see each other again(which is once in a blue moon), Tortang Talong is always the star topic and we used to joke at each other that we wouldn’t able to survived without tortang talong. So, here’s to my boarding mates!
Try this recipe, this might not be as cheap as it used to but definitely hit the spot.
This recipe is best served with fried rice with banana ketsup as dipping sauce.
