Bantutay and frog soup Some may say YUkkkk or ewwww with this post  frog recipe..In some regions in the Philippines , or maybe in Asia, frogs are a delicacy.. an exotic one. Frogs used are the frogs found in the ricefields. They usually have long legs and can jump very high.{not the bull frogs} kokak kokak We own a resto when I was young and one favorite dish my mom served during those times was the BANTUTAY. How is BANTUTAY made? First, catch the frogs.. kokak kokak..Usually caught in the evening with the use of a net because they jump high. Who will catch them? usually farmers, or an ordinary man looking for a source of livelihood in the barrio, or having fun catching frogs!) but very seldom I think because they are busy in the net games.} First thing is undress the frog with the use of ashes so it wo;t be slippery. Head is cut and internal organs are removed. Do the same with the other frogs. Get the biggest frogs and set aside. Chop the small frogs into small pieces.. smaller... smaller. finer.. finer... Add chopped carrots, garlic, onions and lots of ground pepper. You can add egg if you wish. Mix and mix and mix..Add salt to taste. Get the big frogs with big tummy and stuff it with the mixture till its tummy is full. Prepare your frying pan, add oil.. heat.. heat. heating up!! then let the frog swim into the oil till it is brown.Serve with catsup and with steaming rice!! Hmmm it's yummy! I miss it! I miss my mom too! I love you Inang!! And one time when got sick, I was so weak, my mom cooked frog soup for me.. undressed frogs, ginger, onions, and chili leaves.. and that's it! Love it too! I recovered at once! Enjoy your yuccky day

In Bulacan,BATUTA ang tawag namin sa ganyang luto. Tama ka Ms. Susan, masarap talaga parang chicken or mas masarap pa sa chicken. Yung frog soup naman, masarap din pag sinampalukan na usbong ng sampalok ang gagamitin. Masarap din kahit prito lang na hindi bantutay, or pwede din adobo. happy hugss! susan

Every time I had the chance visiting clients at Clark and Subic , I make sure I eat my lunch at Conching's Resto along the boundaries of Guagua and Florida Olongapo road.
