Hi to all
 
What a mouthwatering question. I �m a filipino there are lots of delicious food here in the Philippines but the most famous is pork adobo. It �s pork cooked with soy sauce which goes well with rice. We also have Kare-Kare which is boiled and sauted beef and vegetables in broth peanut sauce served with salty shrimp fry.

Mmmmmmm, I �m really getting sooooo much hungry! This is a great topic indeed!!! Well, in my country there are many traditional dishes, however the most famous one is "tavche-gravche" - beans cooked in a clay pan, in an oven. It �s very simple to cook, but it �s very delicious. Yummy!

This is the basic recipe, and to this you can add more vegetables or spices if you like. This is what you �ll need:

500 gr. white beans
250 gr. white onion
meat (optional): bacon, sausages, smoked ribs etc.
1 clove of garlic
80 gr. sunflower oil
2 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of red paprika (powder)
fresh mint, and parsley.
1 tablespoon vegeta (optional)
salt and pepper

First wash well the beans then place them in a pot and add water to cover well the beans (let the water be 5 cm over the beans), then put them to boil. When it comes to a boil, boil them about 1-2 minutes then pour the water and add new water to it. Chop the onion in big pieces and add it to the beans. Also you add the meat choped in a bitesize pieces. Boil the beans until they are ready, but be careful not to overboiled it. The beans must be whole and soft inside, not a mush. Then to a hot pan add the oil and the flour and mix it well until golden. Then add the paprika, mix fast and add this to the pot. Add the minced garlic and the choped mint. Add salt, pepper and vegeta. Stir well and cook for 2 minutes. turn off the heat and preheat the oven to 250 C. Add the beans to a terracota baking pan and put them into oven. Bake them until the beans have little liquid and over the beans have formed a thin crust. Sprinkle with finely chopped parsley.

In New Zealand a traditional dessert is

PAVLOVA - yum yum - although the aussies have tried to claim it as their own - it is true blue kiwi cuisine.

I hate stereotypes and even more when Spanish people speak about stereotypes when asked about their country. In Spain there are hundreds of famous dishes apart from paella. We�ve got migas, cocido, croquetas, pisto, alb�ndigas,  lentejas, potaje, judiones, tortilla de patatas, cochinillo, ... and delicious desserts and breakfasts; torrijas, crema catalana, natillas, arroz con leche, chocolate con churros, mazap�n, etc, etc
, and so on
