Greetings!

It has been a while since I cooked for my family (which I missed very much) because I am quite busy but now that I have some time to spare I prepared a special dish that my whole family loves, it is called "Ginataang Kalabasa at Sitaw na may Pinatuyong Hipon" or "Squash and String Beans with Coconut Milk and with Dried Shrimps".

I started to know this dish when I relocated from one town to another (for studying) when I was just in elementary or the 1980s to be exact, shows my age, haha. At first, I am amazed by it because in our town I used to see my relatives use coconut milk only on "kakanin" or "Sweet Delicacies" but in another town that I relocated to for schooling, they are using coconut milk on viands. At first, I am not minding this dish but when I tasted it, oh boy, it is delicious, it is even more delicious if you combine it with Beef or Pork.

So, without further ado, here's how I cook this dish...
