When I found this recipe I went shopping for ingredients right away. Luckily I found frozen chili pepper leaves (dahon ng sili) at the Filipino store. Oh my god! Every spoonful of this wonderful tinola cured me of my homesickness. It felt like I was home again. Thank you so much, you have no idea how good this dish made me feel.

We Love This! To think so few ingredients make a dish this tasty. I was looking for a recipe to use a chayote. I never ate one before and didn't know how it would taste. That squash is very good also. The only thing I used differently is garlic and ginger paste instead of chopping them each up. I find it easier. And I have to say I tried using 3/4 cup of water and found the broth to strong/salty tasting. So I added another 1/2 cup of water and this tasted so perfect to me. Thank you so much for placing this recipe here for us.

yum. i added about 7 cups of water and 3 tablespoons of fish sauce. 3 tablespoons of fish sauce was a bit too much. added "magic sarap" (a powder seasoning) that is popular here in the philippines. the magic sarap powder helped the flavor immensely. masarap (tagalog for delicious).
