Pancit Malabon
One of my favorite noodle recipe in the Philippines. It is closely related to palabok in which the noodles is served separate from the sauce. I cooked the sauce and integrate the noodles in the pan, then arrange in the serving plate to include, but not limited to the following add-ons – flaked smoked fish, crushed pork cracklings, green onions, parsley, fried garlic, hard boiled eggs, cooked shrimps and steamed napa cabbage.
