COCONUT-STEWED BAMBOO SHOOTS WITH SHRIMP (GINATAANG TAMBO)
Dressing seafood in coconut milk is a classic way of cooking it, writes Nicole Ponseca in her book, "I Am a Filipino." Here, shrimp are quickly sautéed in a heady coconut milk sauce laced with onion, ginger and slivers of red chile. Slippery pieces of bamboo shoot (canned, or fresh if you can find it) add texture and a gentle earthiness.
