- Fry chicken in oil until slightly brown, stirring constantly.
- Add ginger and garlic and stir until garlic is browned.
- Add tomatoes until soft, then add 4 cups of water.
- Add anchovy and cook.
- Bring to boil, then simmer until chicken is tender.
- While chicken is simmering, boil beans in water until they are easy to peel.
- This is done by placing a bean between your fingers and rubbing the skin off the beans.
- When this is done with ease, remove from stove and drain.
- Add cold water to beans and then rub beans between your palms until almost all of the beans have been peeled.
- Keep replacing cold water and peeling will drain with water.

- Variation: Bitter melons, cut in squares or leafy vegetables such as spinach may be used.
- Pork may be used instead of chicken.
