I grew up loving Guinataan made by my paternal grandmother, who is en excellent cook. I only wished now that I have paid attention to her culinary skills whenever Iwent to their home so I at least have a little of her skills.
Anyway, this Crusted Guinataang Halo-Halo is a sosyal way of presenting guinataan 😀 Prepared by Chef Myra Segismundo of Restaurant 9501 at The Maya Kitchen Culinary Kitchen last April 2013, Crusted Guinataang Halo-Halo is definitely a comfort food that reminds me of home, family and love.

This is called Ginataang Halo-Halo which simply means Mixed Ingredients in Coconut Milk. It is basically a mixture of different tubers like sweet potato, purple yam, and taro root as well as other ingredients like Saba bananas, jackfruit, tapioca pearls, and glutinous rice balls. All I could find was yellow sweet potato so my ginataang halo-halo wasn’t colorful as it should be…but it was tasty of course!
