Yep, but add sliced hotdogs, peas, and loads of ketchup!
Porcupine meatballs. It's meatballs cooked in a tomato sauce (tomato soup basically). The meatballs are blended with uncooked rice that cooks while they boil. Besides takeout, this was probably the favourite dish of my siblings and I growing up.
Is this a local dish or sonething your family invented?
Your question made me wonder, I actually had no idea. But its an American recipe, it has a wiki. (i find it funny that a meatball has its own wiki)
They were a staple during the Great Depression requiring only a few basic ingredients: ground beef, uncooked long-grain rice, onion, and canned tomato soup.[1] The name comes from the appearance of the meatballs, which appear prickly when the rice pokes out of them as they cook, resembling a porcupine.[2]>
I've heard of it before, but never had it. Pretty sute it's a local thing.
PB&J
Mashed potatoes with beans on top 🤤
Never had it before, but it sounds good!
Mine would be pancit luglug from the Philippines. My dad would always buy it for me after Sunday mass. It came wrapped in a banana leaf and news paper and tied shut with plastic straw.
Oh that looks good, I'll have to give a try at making it!
Instant ramen noodles are a childhood comfort food for me. My friend and I would make them at her house and we felt like we were expert chefs because we were using the stove, ha ha!
Bologna sandwich.
It's just bologna on white bread and I find it delightful.
My family would make a dish which we called Hot-dogs-with-cheese-on-top-in-the-oven. We'd take hot dogs and cut them in half, place them flat-side down on a piece of white bread, and put 2 slices of American cheese on top. Pop them on a pan in the oven until the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted. Simple and delicious.
Spaghetti with meatballs and sausages. My mom would make gigantic fist-sized meatballs swimming in a huge pot of sauce. So good.
Pot roast using Knorr onion soup mix in a crockpot for 8 hours over white rice. 💙
Can I ask about the kompe, what is the potato dumpling made from? Potato flour or is it made from mash? It looks pretty delicious, especially fried
It's made with finely shredded potato and a mix of potato and regular flour. It's actually best made with shriveled old potatoes, as they've lost a lot of their water, which makes the dumpling hold better.
