Adobong Kangkong with Bagoong at Gata

Adobong Kangkong

You can prepare a mouthwatering dish out of kangkong. This is not your typical adobong kangkong since we will be adding some bagoong and coconut milk. I grew up eating this kangkong recipe. I only used the stalks and used kangkong leaves in other dishes like sinigang. In the Visayas, we normally use gata or coconut milk to our dishes. And if you haven’t tried this yet, then you should.

Here’s how to cook Adobong Kangkong with Bagoong at Gata:
