Pancit habhab

Pancit habhab is a Lucban noodle dish served on banana leaves. Vanjo Merano’s recipe uses miki Lucban noodles with pork belly, shrimp, chayote, carrot, snow peas and cabbage. Garlic, onion, soy sauce, oyster sauce and beef broth form the seasoning, with the noodles absorbing the liquid during cooking.[1]

The pork and shrimp are cooked separately and returned after the noodles soften. Vinegar is added when serving. The leaf is lifted to the mouth so the noodles can be eaten without utensils.[1]
