It was a delightful experience at Hunchos in Katipunan, Marikina

 

Hunchos at Katipunan, Marikina

They are a Tex-Mex restaurant with filipino dishes. They started their facebook page since 2017. 

Located at 81 Katipunan St, Marikina, 1800 Metro Manila

They are located inside the premise of Relay Motors.

Their servers are very welcoming and they guided us which are best sellers. We have no much expectations with the restaurant. Prices were reasonable because it can be shared with two persons especially when you are just craving for new foos to taste. I find their menu interesting since it’s a Mexican with filipino twist. They did not disappoint us for the food they served. Serving time was very quick for only 10-15 minutes. The place was relaxing and open air.

The only complaint I have was the wash liquid was diluted with water. That is unsanitary. However their wash area that is very refreshing since it is under the tree. The catch is that since the place was inside the car service establishments you might smell chemicals or hear some noises depending on the service they have on going.

Our total bill was only less than 1,000 pesos for 4 items. We had a great time. I gave them 4.5 stars. We will definitely go back and bring some family and friends.

1 Tablespoon Chili Flakes
Pinch of Salt
1/4 Cup of water
1/4 Cup of Vinegar
Add any ketchup, this will add according to your color preference
1 tablespoon of slurry

Slurry:

1 Tablespoon of cornstarch

2 Tablespoons of water

Lumpia Rolls:

150 grams of pork

150 grams of chicken

200 grams shrimp

2-3 Cloves of garlic

1 Large Onion 

1 Large Carrots

2 stalks of Celery

2 tablespoons of Oyster sauce

Add any granules like Maggi magic sarap

Add paprika to taste

Add sesame oil (according to your preference)

8 1/2 by 8 1/2 lumpia wrapper

 

Preparation:

Sauce

Use a saucepan to medium heat put the sugar, water, chili flakes, and ketchup and stir well for -3 minutes. Put the slurry and stir well. Until the desired sauce consistency. Set aside and let it cool.

Lumpia

Put the ground meat in a mixing bowl. Use a  vegetable mixer put the garlic, onion, and celery until they are all in the same size of the meat. Then, grind the shrimps and add to the same mixing bowl. Add the oyster sauce, granules, paprika and sesame oil. Then, mix the ingredients for 3-5 minutes until well blended. Lastly, cut the wrapper in half and do your secret wrapping technique. Then fry in any oil you have at home.

You may also cook using air fryer

Using an air fryer is also a good way to cook lumpia without using oil. In fact, it is a healthier option. I usually set the temperature to 370F and air fry my lumpia for 12 minutes. The cooking time can be extended depending on how well you want your food done.
