Foreign Dish: Saag

Filipino Style: Laing

India's food may seem nothing but a traditional dish of curries, brown rice, and flatbread to mainlanders. However, that's not always the situation in Indian dishes. Using spinach, yogurt, curry powder, and leafy vegetables like saag provide a tasty, nutritious, and somewhat spicy Indian meal. Despite its unpleasant look, the dish's taste shines through when served with cottage cheese or Indian paneer. Originally from the province of the Bicol region, Laing, a dish using taro leaves, has become a favorite among Filipinos with its spicy flavor. Indian meals and Laing are both delicious in their way.
