15 Filipino ulams and the dishes that best go with them, according to our trusted kitchen wiz

ANCX Staff

For house husbands who’s been put in charge of the kitchen since last year’s lockdown, we’re quite sure churning out three ulams a day has been a tall order. Now if you belong to a family used to having not only one dish a meal but a pair of viands, things have just been doubly challenging, for sure. By now, your adobo with lumpiang gulay pairing has become predictable, and the idea of your tinola with fried tawilis on the lunch table no longer spark excitement with the kids. So here’s help: we asked our favorite Instagram cook, the epicure and Zubuchon proprietor Joel Binamira, to give us ka-partner suggestions to staple Filipino lunch and dinner fare, from the familiar to the fresh-sounding. <div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img src="http://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/ancx/food-n-drink/2021/02/3ulam.jpg"/><figcaption>The crunch of fried tawilis gives great contrast to the softness of laswa.
