Paho kag Guinamos

A perfect appetizer, this combo can make you salivate the moment you see it. For most Pinoys, mangga't bago-ong (green/unripe mango and sauteed shrimp paste) is among the ultimate appetizers.

Even just the smell of tanginess of the mango and the pungent-ness of the sauteed guinamos already makes a gastronomic impact. 



But there's more to this combo than what it is. You can also make it into a salad.... 

Just dice green mangoes (the ones that are halfway between green and ripe are the best), then add slices of onions and tomatoes and mix sauteed bago-ong. 

On it's own, it is already a treat but as side dish to fried or grilled meat or fish, it's the bomb! Happy eating...
