Kilawing Puso ng Saging is a Filipino recipe involving banana blossoms. This is considered as a vegetable dish wherein the blossoms are sauteed with garlic and onion and cooked in vinegar.ย We can consider Kilawing Puso ng Saging as a simple recipe that can be cooked during regular days. This is also budget friendly because banana blossoms are not expensive at all.

Kilawing Puso ng Saging

I remember the days when I was growing up in the Philippines. I used to harvest the banana blossoms from the banana plants in a vacant lot near our house.

Before you proceed in the cooking process, make sure that you prepare the blossoms accordingly. It is important that the sap is removed before you cook. Refer to the cooking video for more guidance.
