My sister in law gave me a handful of their Luyang Dilaw (turmeric ginger) harvest last year. I thought of using it to cook my family’s favorite Tinolang Manok.
Verdict? This is tastier and smells good than the ones cooked with ordinary ginger. Luyang Dilaw eliminates the lansa taste or aftertaste of the chicken.
Ingredients:
1 kilo chicken cut in serving pieces
chicken gizzard and liver
1 medium size papaya
1 clove of garlic (crushed)
1 piece onion (sliced)
chili (sili) leaves
Saute garlic, onion, turmeric in a small amount of vegetable oil. Add chicken, gizzard and liver, papaya. Drop some salt or a teaspoonful of fish sauce (patis). Add water to boil. Add salt or fish sauce to taste. Add chili leaves in the latter part of cooking. Best served when hot.

This looks delicious! Although it is a new thing for me to see turmeric being used instead of just plain ginger on tinolang manok recipes.
