Aval or Poha is what its known as in India and we make a savoury breakfast from it. This is a good way to use it in something else – thank you!

pinipig, didn’t know that is how it is called, as i bought it a substitute to the Indian chivra or Poha at an Asian store.
Would love to know how it is used otherwise?
I tried doing the same thing as the Indian Poha of soaking and draining them before frying but it bacame a sticky mass. So, I assume I have to use it dry?

Thank you so much about the tip to look for this as Vietnamese ‘com’! The selection of (labeled) Filipino products in the Twin Cities is very limited so I’ve had to try to find the same item from other Asian sources. However, this style of pinipig seems new to me – although I’ve only ever had it already made into a treat, the one I’m familiar with is more like toasted whole rice, not flattened. I’d love to find this and try it out!

Amy and Rory’s book is on my wish list!

Again, a recipe I’ve never heard of, using ingredients I’ll never find… When I end up with half my apt filled with obscure ingredients, it’ll be all your fault Jude!

The way the rice flakes sound, they seem to be similar to the Indian “poha” or “ChiRe” (we call them that at the eastern regions).. may be a different variety of rice between them. what a cute name, makes me think of Pinipig as a penguin, but then i think i am reading too many kids books;-)
