Banana Blossom (Puso ng Saging) Patties + Baked Potato with Cheddar, Cream Cheese and Spring Onions

The little boy has been sick since Friday, and I thought I'd whip up something yummy today to boost his appetite. I decided to use banana blossom (puso ng saying) for his vegetable patties today as it is a good source of dietary fiber and protein! 

Banana Blossom (Puso ng Saging) Patties + Baked Potato with Cheddar, Cream Cheese and Spring Onions

Puso ng Saging Patties

1/2 of a banana blossom (puso ng saging), chopped finely

1. Mix the chopped puso ng saying and egg in a bowl. You may add salt and pepper to your preference.
2. On a non-stick pan, fry the puso ng saging and egg mixture into palm-sized patties. Make sure both sides of the patties are evenly cooked.
