Dinengdeng is an Ilocano recipe. Usually it is composed of a variety of vegetables boiled and seasoned with fish paste {bagoong isda}/ shrimp paste {bagoong alamang} and fried or grilled fish.
There are many versions of this dish. Some has labong {bamboo shoots}, saluyot {jute leaves}and sigarilyas. Others has sayote, malunggay and bittermelon. I’ve also seen some with squash blossoms and eggplants.
