I saw my friend’s photo in Facebook of pancit palabok that he made. He’s actually a good cook and whenever he post a photo of food, I always asks him the recipe so that I could cook it when I have time.

He lives in the U.S. but he said there are lots of Filipino stores selling ingredients for Filipino dishes that’s why he can cook Filipino food.

Anyway, here are the ingredients and procedure on how he made this yummy-looking palabok. I’ll just refer to this post whenever I’ll have the time to cook it.
