This paklay recipe is simple and straightforward. For those that are not familiar with this dish, paklay is a stew made-up of pig and cow innards. This dish is popular in the southern parts of the Philippines and is best enjoyed as a main dish or as pulutan.

Paklay Recipe

Although it might seem that it needs an acquired taste to enjoy this dish, I must confess that I fell in love with paklay the moment I tried it —  and it became a habit to cook paklay when I have the chance.

This Paklay recipe depicts the way that I prepare the dish. I am not claiming that this is an authentic recipe, but I think that it is something that is worth your attention and effort because it is just really good.

I made sure that I made all the innards tender by boiling in water for long hours. The ginger, garlic, and onion did a great job in minimizing the gamey aroma and flavor of this dish. I also thought that the pineapple and bamboo shoots were a great addition – these added a sour flavor that blends well with the rest of the ingredients.

How do you eat paklay? As for me, I enjoy eating paklay as it is – no rice or any side dish at all. How about you?

    Paklay is like bopis in some way. I cannot wait to get my hand on the ingredients. I am a big fan of Bopis and it seems that Paklay is as good too. Thanks for this recipe! Wish me luck!
