chopsoy


My own version of this veggie! My mother is feeling lazy lately, just to get back at her in a good way this holiday season, I decided to cook for her. But I don't think she like it 'coz there are more meat than veggies, hahahaha.

Here's how I did it:

1 pack of mixed vegetables from the super market
250 g ginisa-cut meat
seasoning

Saute onion and 4 cloves garlic. Add meat. When meat is brownish, add vegetables. Add 1 cup water and seasoning. Wait for veggies to cook. Serve hot.
