Kitchen Diaries: Sticky Rice with Corn and Sago

What is the one food item that you must have in every meal? A lot of Filipinos would say a meal without rice would be incomplete and would probably leave them still hungry. Rice is a staple food in the Philippines and it shows from the many things we can make from rice.

Sunday Family Dinners: Fish Tacos

For a few weeks now I've been cooking my family dinner every Sunday. Usually, it's my older sister who does the special cooking for the family, like Christmas, New Year's dinners, and the occasional "wala lang" meals. But since she started on her diet, where she needs to prepare and cook all of her meals herself, she doesn't have time to cook for the family anymore. It's my time to step up to the plate.

Cooking dinner every Sunday is partially voluntary and partially required by mom. I love food and I really love watching cooking and food shows, but I usually only helped around the kitchen and don't really prepare full meals. Mom insists that I should practice because I'll be getting married soon. I don't mind cooking because I'm learning new stuff every time and it's fun.

I always forget to take photos before, during, and after cooking, so I don't have any photos of the previous stuff I've made. So far I've done a bunch of chicken recipes so I thought it was time to make something with fish. After looking through a bunch of recipes I decided I was going to make fish tacos.

Recipes ahead!
