Pancit Molo
Monday, January 08, 2007
Late last Year, I posted a recipe for pancit molo in Filipino Food Lovers Blog. I was able to make one for Christmas Dinner and document it. This is the pancit molo that I am used to. Making Pancit can be divided into two parts
A. Wanton
1/2 kilo Fresh pork - removed skin (set aside), ground the
pork
Garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
Molo wrappers
(if you have time its best to make your own pasta)
Combine ground pork, garlic, salt and pepper to taste. Put some filling on one corner of a molo wrapper. Roll up to enclose. Get
the two ends and pinch together to seal. A little
water will do the trick. Do this for all the filling
and wrappers.
Cut excess molo wrapper into strips or triangles. Add this to the soup just like the wanton.
Variation - (some people would add (or subtract) different vegetable and
flavors)
eg. singkamas, carrot, onion, shrimps parsley. I suggest when you do cook
(fry) a little of the mixture, taste and correct your seasonings.
One of my lola before would add a salted black beans (tausi) to enhance the taste of wantons.
B. Soup:
2 tablespoons oil
garlic, chopped
Onions, chopped
Pork Skin - cooked and sliced thinly
1 chicken breast, cooked and flaked
½ cup shelled shrimps (or dried)
Chicken gizzard and liver, chopped (optional)
(chicken shrimp ham) broth
salt and pepper to taste
chopped spring onions
fried garlic
Heat oil then sauté garlic and onions. Add chicken, sliced pork skin, shrimps. Cook for a few minutes then add the broth. Bring to a boil then drop in the stuffed molo
wrappers. add the excess wrappers. Add the chopped chicken gizzard and liver. Season to taste. Cover and let boil. Serve hot topped with lots of spring onions and fried garlic.
Variations : You can add milk to make the soup creamier.
Thanks to my niece Sherre Ann Milan. She assisted me in cooking this pancit molo. I had the tendency to concentrate the flavors and reduce the water content of this dish. My dad reminded me that this is really a soup.
