Lusog Notes

This dish is a source of protein and niacin. Protein helps build and repair body tissues and is essential for growth while niacin helps improve circulation and suppresses inflammation.

Chef`s Tip

Sauté onions before the garlic. Garlic burns faster and will have a bitter taste when sautéed before the onions.
