Pinakbet is a Filipino vegetable dish from the north of the Philippines. It consists of varied local vegetables commonly grown in the backyard such as bitter gourd, eggplant, okra, squash, sweet potato and many other vegetables.
This dish can also be accompanied with grilled or fried fish, and meat such as beef or pork. In this recipe, I choose to cook it with prawns, it adds more savoury flavor from the juice (head part) of the prawns.
