My delivery came in still hot and fresh. Ama’s Recipe only has a limited menu, but it’s really their unique kiampong that has everyone talking about them. It’s not the usual kiampong that I have experienced before from my other friends and family, but it packs a lot more flavors and ingredients that truly makes it extra special.

An order of Ama’s Signature Kiampong (P250) is already good for 2-3 persons. Kiampong is a traditional dish found in Filipino Chinese families which is usually prepared by the grandmothers and older generations. It is essentially a casserole dish or a type of fried rice which comes with various ingredients, making it a complete meal by itself.

Ama’s Signature Kiampong is quite different because it is prepared with a twist of fresh and healthy ingredients. Inside this rice dish, you will find tofu, carrots, spring onions, adobo peanuts, and meat. The combination is quite unique, especially the addition of carrots and tofu which gives it a different texture. I really love the explosion of flavors with every bite. It’s honestly the best kiampong I have ever tasted!

Ama’s Recipe also offers Tea Eggs (P150-6 pcs) which are best paired with the kiampong. Also called marble eggs because of their color and look, these are boiled in Chinese tea leaves with sauces and spices, giving it a savory taste. It adds another dimension to the already delicious kiampong. My fiancé says that this really brings back memories of his own grandmother’s cooking which he truly misses.

They also offer their Adobo Peanuts (P200-300 grams) separately if you want to add more toppings to the kiampong like I do, or just to munch on them as a snack. These are much better than the streetside peanuts being sold outside and I’m sure they are also healthier.

Now I understand why Alexis and her family feel that they should share this recipe with the rest of the community. Her ama’s unconditional love for her grandchildren makes her kiampong truly special. Ama’s Recipe delivers their signature dishes only during the weekends, so it’s better to book your orders early. You can contact them on Facebook and Instagram for your deliveries which can be done through Grab or Lalamove and will be charged to the buyer. I’m definitely ordering their signature kiampong again soon.
