Hilaw na Mangga at Bagoong Alamang.
If you are a Filipino, I am very much sure that right now, you are salivating and thinking of a way to get your hands on a plate of these! Green mangoes with spicy shrimp sauce is one of the best Filipino food ever served on a plate - or a bowl - or a platito - or a plastic sold on the street. LOL
If you have not heard of eating unripe mango in your life, here's your chance. Green mangoes are sour-sweet, crunchy unripe version of the yellow mango which are often soft and sweet. When I think of green mangoes, I memories of childhood, playing under trees and home comes to mind. This delectable dish is best served fresh from the "kaban" a few days after it was harvested.
Filipino pregnant women love to much these delis because of the soury-sweet taste it gives. What can you say about this dish? Any nostalgic experience with hilaw na mangga?
