This dish is a seafood mix of shrimp, fish fillet, scallops with vegetables such as snow peas and cashew nuts. It is then filled in a miniature baskets made from potatoes, kangkong leaves and cornstarch mixture. The basket is edible and it is made from grated potatoes with kangkong then pressed with two strainers then fried until crispy and golden brown.

To cook seafood in green basket;  Mix shrimp,fish,calamansi juice and salt in a bowl. Put scallops in another bowl and cover with milk. Allow both mixtures to marinate while you make the potato baskets. Drain off liquid from the grated potatoes. Combine potatoes, kangkong leaves and cornstarch in a bowl. Stir well to distribute kangkong leaves in the mixture. Lightly grease with oil and put in a medium or small strainer. Place 1/4 of the potato-kangkong mixture in the medium- sized strainer. Press the smaller-sized strainer onto the potato mixture to allow it to take the shape of the strainer. Holding the strainer tightly by the handles, lower the strainers into very hot oil to fry. Cook the mixture until the potatoes turn golden brown. Tap out onto a baking sheet lined with absorbent paper. Repeat procedure until you have four baskets.
