Dynamite - my version of a tasty Filipino treat

Dynamite is a Filipino treat commonly served as bar chow, but can also be served as a snack or part of the main meal.

I love cooking this for my family because we all love its spicy kick. I am sharing my own personal version of the recipe.

You will need:

• 400 grams ground lean pork
• 20 pieces finger chili
• 1 medium carrot, grated
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 1 whole head of garlic, finely chopped
• a few sprigs of coriander (kinchay), finely chopped
• 2 eggs
• bread crumbs
• salt and pepper to taste
• rice paper 20 pieces (large)
• cheese
• oil for frying

Procedure:

• Make the filling by mixing together the pork, carrots, onions, garlic and coriander. Break 2 eggs over it and add the bread crumbs to act as a binder. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until the mix is thoroughly blended. Set aside.

• Prepare the finger chilies. Make a cut along the whole length and remove the seeds. Wash thoroughly and set aside.

• Prepare the cheese by slicing it into 2 inch sticks.
• To assemble:

• Place one piece rice paper on a large plate.
• Put one finger chili. Stuff it with a cheese stick and one heaping tablespoon of the meat mixture.
• Fold up the edges and roll.

• Deep fry in enough oil until golden brown
• Drain excess oil on paper towels 

Serve with Honey-Mustard dipping sauce.

To make the dipping sauce:

• Mix 2 parts mayonnaise, 2 parts honey and 1 part mustard. Add finely chopped garlic (optional). Chill for a few minutes.

My yummy Dynamite. Enjoy!!!
