I've never tried this recipe before but if ever I do, I can try adding the sweet corn but not the okra as Cristy did because okra and saluyot are two vegetables that are too slippery. It's either one or the other would work for me.

We can also vary the leafy vegetables. Instead of saluyot, we can use the fresh ferns edible or what we call pako. This is my favorite dish.
