Here is a Cebu recipe i've just found.

----------------
Green Mango Salad

4 green mangoes, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
½ pound singkamas, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt
juice of two limes
1 tablespoon peanut oil
5 cloves garlic, crushed and thinly sliced
6 green onions, thinly sliced (including some of the green)
½ pound ground pork
1 tablespoon shrimp powder (ground and sifted hibe [dried shrimp])
4 tablespoons patis (fish sauce)
4 tablespoons chunky peanut butter
2 tablespoons palm or brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried red chili flakes


Put the green mango and singkamas slices in a mixing bowl, and sprinkle with salt and lime juice.

In a frying pan, heat the peanut oil, and fry the garlic and green onions until the garlic is just cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon, and set aside to drain. In the same hot oil, fry the ground pork until the pink disappears. Add the powdered shrimp, fish sauce, peanut butter, and sugar. Stir well, and remove from the heat.

Combine the cooked ingredients from the saucepan with the marinated fruits/tubers in the mixing bowl. Add the pepper and chili flakes. Mix thoroughly. Chill in the refrigerator and serve cold.

Peanut Squares

Sangkap (Ingredients):
1 cup of shelled roasted peanuts
½ cup of sugar
3/4 cup of milk
¼ cup of sugar for the pastry board


Equipment needed:
You will need meat grinder, a saucepan, a spatula, a rolling pin, a knife and, a cooking spoon.


Pagluto (Cooking Procedure):
Put the peanuts through a meat grinder with a medium blade. Then place them in a saucepan with the 1/2 cup of sugar and the milk. Mix well.

Place the peanut mixture over medium flame and cook, stir constantly, until the mixture boils and the sugar dissolves.

Lower the flame and cook, stir often, until the mixture thickens. As the mixture gets very thick, stir continually, to prevent sticking. This will take around 15 minutes.

When the mixture is so thick that you can see the bottom of the pan when you stir, remove from stove.

Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of sugar on the pastry board. Turn the peanut mixture out onto the sugar and flatten it out with a spatula.

Allow it to cool so you can handle it.

Next roll it out with a rolling pin until the mixture is about 1/4 inch thick. With a knife, cut the mixture into small squares or with a cookie cutter.

Remove the cookies from the pastry board with a spatula.

Hi Jack lami kaayoo imong manga recipe's da... naa kay recipe sa Biko...?

[Jack]

@wombat: Here is your requested recipe. Just searched this over the net. Any other requests in mind? (...bast dili lang kwarta...)

----------------------
Biko

Sangkap (Ingredients):
3 cups glutinous sweet rice
1-1/2 water
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup regular Sugar
3 cups Diluted Coconut Milk
3/4 tsp. Salt
1-2 cups Lightly Toasted Sweetened coconut Flakes Topping


luto (Cooking Procedure):
1. In a rice cooker, combine the glutinous rice, water, brown sugar, regular sugar, coconut milk and salt.
2. Turn on cooker and stir mixture occasionally until liquid is absorbed and rice is soft. Add more water if needed. If rice cooker turns off automatically and glutinous rice is not quite cooked yet, leave the warm button on until rice is fully cooked.
3. Continue to stir occasionally so that rice texture will be uniform. You may also cook this mixture in a deep non-stick pot medium low heat, stirring frequently until fully cooked.
4. Transfer cooked mixture into a glass pan. Flatten and smooth top with the back of a spoon. Let cool until firm then slice in serving pieces.
5. Top with toasted coconut flakes just before serving.

@harrykevin: Here is your simple hotcake recipe. Its mostly called PANCAKE.

----------------------------------------------------
PANCAKE

Pancake Batter:
4 1/2 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 pkg. dry yeast
4 cups milk
1/2 cup butter
6 pcs eggs

How to Cook
Combine and beat until smooth. Lightly grease griddle and pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot surface for each pancake. Turn when edges look cooked and bubbles begin to break on surface.
For extra light pancakes, mix some beer in with the batter.

...extra...
It is also possible to follow a simpler recipe, without exact measurements. First, break an egg into a bowl. Mix in plain white flour until a smooth paste is formed and then dilute with milk until the consistency is suitable for pouring. Heat a small amount of some kind of cooking fat or cooking oil in a small frying pan and pour in enough mixture to thinly cover the base of the pan (leaving a little room round the edge). When the mixture appears to be reasonably cooked on the base (the top side will change in appearance), either turn or flip the pancake to cook the reverse.
