Are you good at eating these shells called bagongon or telescope shell in English? I am a good eater of telescope shell because we always have it since I was young, I love sucking it when the meat of the shell and the flavor of the coconut milk touched your tongue and pallate together, "Lami" (yummy). Ingredients: 1/2 kilo bagongon thumb size ginger 1 small onion 1 cup thin coconut milk ( ikalawang piga) 1/2 cup pure coconut milk ( kakang gata) 1 bunch swamp cabbage ( kangkong) or talbos ng camote salt to taste
Procedure: 1. Cut the tip of the shell then wash well.
2. In a pot put the thin coconut milk, ginger, chili and onion then stir and bring to a boil, when boiling add the telescope shell (bagongon) then simmer for 5 minutes. 3. Add the swamp cabbage ( kangkong) and simmer until half cooked then add the pure coconut milk and salt to taste then simmer until done. 4. Serve and enjoy. :-)
