ujom
Ujom is a traditional dish from the Philippines, particularly popular in the Visayas region. It is a type of stew made from a combination of various ingredients, typically including pork, beef, or fish, along with vegetables such as eggplant, okra, and string beans. The dish is often flavored with a mix of spices, including garlic, onions, ginger, and chili peppers, which contribute to its rich and aromatic profile. Ujom is usually cooked in a large pot with a significant amount of water, allowing the ingredients to simmer together until they become tender and the flavors meld.
The dish is often served with steamed rice, which helps to balance the richness of the stew.
