Hello Food lovers! Hi to all my friends here on hive! How was your Thursday? I Hope all is well and we are in good health with the abundant blessings bestowed to us by our loving and merciful creator, our Only One God. It has been a while since the last time I made a post .Today let me share with you One of Filipinos favorite soup called BULALO ( beef shanks with bone marrow) but my version of BULALO is with a twist. Originally bulalo is beef shanks with bone marrow but my version is with beef ribs because we love it mixed beef shanks, bone marrow and beef ribs.

I am craving for soup that can really suit my needs, we have been eating fried foods for a few days so my tummy and my mouth seems to agree to eat something with a tasty soup. So I have decided to cook soup with vegetables because I love eating vegetables too. Bulalo comes to mind so I go to SM to buy all the ingredients that I need.

Bulalo is very famous in the Philippines. This is a dish that I learned from my MOms brother who lives far from us. I was having a vacation in my uncle's place and He teached me this dish that makes me appreciate and like the dish ever since I Ate it .Now I cooked it with my daughter so she would also learn too.
