00:00This is our favorite part, Kapitbahay!
00:03Ate Cha will now share her recipe for stir-fried mung bean.
00:09Or mung bean guisado.
00:11Chef, this is so basic, right?
00:14Okay, and you, Chef?
00:16Explain it to us.
00:17Because I said, why are there so many negative comments on my post?
00:21Why did Dodie soften the mung bean before stir-frying it?
00:25That's why it's called mung bean guisado.
00:26Explain it to us, Chef.
00:27What I do is, after washing the mung bean,
00:30I put it in while I'm stir-frying it until it's hard.
00:33Then I'll soften it when it's all melted.
00:36So that they all melt at the same time.
00:38They blend together.
00:40That's their style.
00:41Like a swan.
00:43Do you see all of that?
00:44A swan?
00:45No, not a swan.
00:46We're not going to make our mung bean alive.
00:49Now, it's already...
00:51Yes, you're right.
00:53No, it's just to make it faster.
00:54It's just to make it faster.
00:57But I'm going to call another chef.
01:00She's like a chef who cooks fast.
01:04It's Fort!
01:05Yes, he's my brother.
01:06Hello, brother.
01:08Hello, brother.
01:09Hey, hey, hey.
01:10Welcome.
01:11You're not my brothers.
01:14We're really the brothers.
01:15He's really my brother.
01:17But what you said earlier,
01:20that you stir-fry the mung bean,
01:21I do the same.
01:22You don't soften it?
01:23Let's explain it to them.
01:24Oh my God, we're the same.
01:26For me, it absorbs the flavors of the beans.
01:29Yes.
01:31That's the explanation.
01:32That's true.
01:33It's a waste.
01:34Should we throw it away?
01:35The water.
01:36It's a waste.
01:36Right?
01:37If I need a citrus soup,
01:41cornstarch.
01:42If your soup is a bit cloudy,
01:44use flour.
01:45Usually, flour is used in mung bean soup.
01:47It's from Ms. Clara.
01:49Here's Ms. Clara.
01:50Ms. Clara is our idol.
01:52She's our peg in Filipino food.
01:54She's our peg in Filipino food.
01:55Clara, maybe you're right.
01:57He's not here anymore.
01:58No, it's only been 3 years.
01:59Ms. Clara is already old.
02:01But the arrenderia is still going on.
02:03No, it's not.
02:04It's not stopping anymore.
02:05The siblings are fighting.
02:07Is that true?
02:08That's all you know?
02:09I haven't even introduced him yet.
02:11Did you grow up there?
02:13In that area?
02:14Yes, in Pasay.
02:15FB Harrison.
02:16Shout out to the people of Pasay.
02:19When Ms. Clara left,
02:21we moved here.
02:22There's no reason for us to stay here.
02:25There's no food for us.
02:27Let's try to imitate her.
02:28For this recipe,
02:29we'll need
02:30mung bean,
02:31garlic,
02:32onion,
02:33tomato,
02:34shrimp paste,
02:35green chili,
02:36bitter melon,
02:37chili leaves,
02:38fish sauce,
02:39pepper,
02:40cornstarch,
02:41or any kind of thickener,
02:42and chicharon.
02:44In the past,
02:45I used to cook at our house.
02:46Ouch!
02:48What happened?
02:49In Cavite,
02:50we have 3 families living there.
02:52I used to cook.
02:54I used to do the grocery shopping.
02:55I used to wash the dishes in the afternoon.
02:57Is that true?
02:58Wow!
02:59You're so hardworking.
03:00There,
03:01let's stir it.
03:02It smells good.
03:03There,
03:04the fire is getting stronger.
03:05What's next?
03:06Let's add the shrimp paste.
03:07Let's add the shrimp paste.
03:08Just a little bit.
03:09But that's it.
03:10The shrimp paste is salty.
03:11Do you add shrimp paste?
03:12Of course.
03:13Do you add shrimp paste?
03:14Yes.
03:15What's the story
03:16behind this?
03:17Ms. Clara,
03:18really?
03:19Is it really her?
03:20In the past,
03:21our budget was low
03:22because we had a lot of people.
03:24I don't know
03:25if Berta can remember,
03:26but I know
03:27because I grew up there.
03:29How long have you been doing this?
03:312 years.
03:32Just 2 years?
03:33Yes.
03:34I didn't know that.
03:35We were really young.
03:36Okay, okay.
03:37So,
03:38when our budget was low
03:39for food,
03:40I bought mung beans.
03:41Okay.
03:42Because
03:43it's already 15 pesos.
03:44It's already big.
03:45It's like a big plastic.
03:47Then,
03:48we split it.
03:49There's still some left.
03:50Oh.
03:51Because it's tasty.
03:52How many of you
03:53are there in 15 pesos?
03:54Four.
03:55You're four siblings.
03:56Four.
03:57That's too much.
03:58Then,
03:59just rice.
04:00There.
04:01Let's do this.
04:02Isn't that
04:03and pork,
04:04isn't that a bad memory?
04:05It's like
04:06a time of hardship
04:07when you remember
04:08that food.
04:09Isn't it like that?
04:10Not really.
04:11Because I said
04:12I'm happy
04:13when I eat mung beans.
04:14Really?
04:15How did you connect?
04:16It's like a mung bean tear here.
04:17What?
04:18Okay,
04:19so usually,
04:20we saute mung beans
04:21raw.
04:22That's why
04:23there's a mung bean tear here.
04:24So it won't take too long
04:25for them to boil it.
04:30How's your relationship
04:31with your parents?
04:32Are you close with them?
04:34My father,
04:35he already went to heaven.
04:37But,
04:38I'd like to believe
04:39it was only in 2018.
04:40Oh, just recently.
04:41That we were
04:42really close
04:43but we didn't talk much
04:44because he has
04:45a different family.
04:46So,
04:47with my mother,
04:48it was just steady.
04:49Right?
04:50It's not like
04:52you're not close.
04:53You're not sweet.
04:54It's like
04:55we're just like
04:56how are you?
04:57Just like that.
04:58It's like you're friends
04:59but you talk to each other.
05:00No,
05:01I don't want to be friends
05:02with my mother.
05:03Why not?
05:04The boring bonding
05:05between us.
05:06Hey,
05:07you're still a kid.
05:10No,
05:11because
05:12we're not really
05:13close.
05:14Unfortunately.
05:15What does she do?
05:16She's in
05:17Japan.
05:18That's where she lives.
05:20Since I was six,
05:21you're only four, right?
05:22I still remember
05:23you told me something before.
05:24You also tried
05:25to go to Japan, right?
05:26Oh, I didn't like it.
05:28It didn't continue.
05:29It didn't continue.
05:30Oh, really?
05:31You just pushed it.
05:32What was that?
05:33I already helped my family.
05:34So, it was just a pressure
05:35of life.
05:36You didn't want to go?
05:37No.
05:38You didn't want to go.
05:39I wanted to study.
05:40Oh.
05:41I already helped my family.
05:42My visa was denied.
05:44That's good.
05:45That's where I went
05:46to the audition
05:47of Starstruck.
05:48Oh, there.
05:49Look,
05:50you're like a neighbor.
05:51If you think
05:52you're a failure
05:53in life,
05:54it's not that you think
05:55you're a failure right away.
05:56You're just being taken
05:57to where you should be
05:58in life.
05:59That's true.
06:00Don't play around
06:01too much.
06:02Yes.
06:03I remember,
06:04we were dancers
06:05in Phil's GMA.
06:06We showed him
06:07his picture
06:08to our manager.
06:09He said,
06:10you look beautiful
06:11when you audition.
06:12Wow.
06:13Beautiful.
06:14Beautiful.
06:15How did he feel it?
06:16He said,
06:17you're beautiful.
06:18I don't like it
06:20You're too emotional.
06:21I feel embarrassed.
06:22I said,
06:23I don't think
06:24I need to audition.
06:25What?
06:26What?
06:27I don't have anything
06:28to do in my life.
06:29I'm a bit depressed.
06:30I said,
06:31I didn't enroll.
06:32What can I do?
06:33Then,
06:34what happened in Starstruck?
06:35I don't think you won there.
06:36No,
06:37because I feel
06:38that I'm the leading lady.
06:39Beautiful.
06:40Then,
06:41I didn't win.
06:42First,
06:43I was removed.
06:44Then,
06:45I came back.
06:46I got my elbow back.
06:47When did you come back?
06:48You were already removed.
06:49Oh, there's an Avenger.
06:50Oh, there's an Avenger.
06:51Oh, there's an Avenger.
06:52We're the ones who made the Avenger famous.
