Poqui Poqui

This is one for all the veggie lovers….. I had promised my friend that I would put up something for her…. You know how hard it is to come up with something vegetarian when you’re a meat lover?!!! Anyway, this one is a Ilocano dish cooked for breakfast…. It seems to be fairly popular as I’ve seen them make in the streets of Middle-East as well….. And don’t be scared that its got a base of Brinjal… The end result is quite good….
