I have been craving for Tiger prawn for the longest time. This was the reason why I decided to make Sinigang na Sugpo upon arriving in the Philippines. The wet markets there carry the freshest seafood. You can watch the video of my special episode below wherein I went to Imus wet market in Cavite to shop for ingredients. It was fun!
What was I doing in Imus? If you have been following us for a while, you might know that I am originally from Las Pinas City. I spent most of my life there when I was still living in the Philippines. We moved to Bacoor Cavite only a year before we migrated to the US. We stayed at our humble house during our vacation, which is not far from Imus wet market.
It was great to re-experience the commute in the Philippines. I rode the jeepney on the way to the public market. It was wonderful!
This recipe is simple. I recommend this for beginners. when it comes to the ingredient, you should also be able to use shrimp if prawn is not available. Spinach can be used as a substitute to kangkong too. Let me know if you have questions or clarifications with the recipe. Have fun cooking and enjoy the good food!
