HOW TO COOK PAKSIW NA PATA

HOW TO COOK PAKSIW NA PATA





This is my Paksiw Na Pata recipe that you would love because it is ver easy and does not require much effort. This easy Paksiw Na Pata recipe came from my mother. I asked her for it when I had visitors to come. I did not know what to cook that time so i asked my friends what dish they would love to eat and their answers were Paksiw Na Pata, Paksiw Na Bangus and Caldereta. So I picked the first and the last. But the problem was I did not know how to cook Paksiw Na Pata that time. Man that was a problem! I did not know my mother knows how to cook it and I was glad when she said “yes, that won’t be a problem”. I am not giving you a little trivia this time because I don’t know where this dish originated. What I know is that Paksiw Na Pata is a traditional dish specially in Bulacan. It is so easy to cook so you can still play your favorite social networking games on facebook. Here is the recipe:
