Anyway the important thing is to enjoy this dish and you can add other ingredients that best suits your taste and preference to the basic bringhe recipe.   Bringhe (Kapampangan Paella)   Print Prep time Cook time Total time   Author: Manny Recipe type: Rice and Pasta Recipe Cuisine: Filipino Serves: 4 to 6 servings Ingredients 1 kilo glutinous rice ¾ kilo chicken fillet ½ head garlic, minced 2 medium sized onions, minced ½ cup fresh turmeric, peeled and grated 3 cups thin coconut milk (or dilute 2 cups of thick coconut milk with 1 cup water) 2 pcs bell peppers, slice into strips ½ cup raisins 1 pc chicken bouillon cube (optional) 1 Tbsp. patis ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp ground black pepper 3 Tbsp. cooking oil banana leaves (wilted) Instructions How to Cook Bringhe: Heat the banana leaves on the stove and heat all the areas of the leaves until wilted.
