MAY I COOK FOR YOU ?

MAY I COOK FOR YOU ?

In my own little way, may I share with you my favorite recipe ? This recipe
happens to be the MRF(Most Requested Food) by my family and friends.So easy
to prepare . Please follow with me.

PORK ADOBO
GOOD FOR 6 PERSONS (depending on the appetite, but when you serve this to
basketball players like my nephews this is good only
for three persons.You may multiply the needed amount
of ingredients basing on the numbers of persons you
you are going to serve.)

INGREDIENTS :
1 KILO PORK TENDERLOIN ----SLICED INTO CUBES
(note: If you prefer pork with fats use the pork belly)
1 KILO POTATO ----SLICED INTO QUARTERS
1 PC. WHOLE ONION ----SLICED
5 CLOVES GARLIC ----FINELY CHOPPED
1 CUP VINEGAR
5 CUPS WATER
1/2 CUP SOY SAUCE
LAUREL LEAVES 3 TO 5 PCS.
BLACK PEPPER BLACK SEEDS 5 PCS.
HOT CHILE OR A FEW DROPS OF HOT PEPPER SAUCE
SALT TO TASTE

note: spices are available in all chinese /asian stores all over the world

PUT ALL INGREDIENTS IN A PAN OR A POT EXCEPT FOR THE POTATOES.
BOIL UNTIL THE PORK IS TENDER.DO NOT STIR. STIRRING CAN SPOIL THE
TASTE, BECAUSE VINEGAR HAS TO ABSORBED TO THE MEAT FULLY, SO PLEASE DO NOT STIR.IF YOU ARE IN A HURRY YOU CAN BOIL IN A HIGH FIRE, BUT COOKING IT IN A LOW FIRE MAKES THE TASTE DISTINCT.COVER
WHILE BOILING. AS SOON AS THE MEAT IS TENDER, ADD THE POTATOES.
SEE TO IT THAT THE WATER OR THE SAUCE IS A BIT HIGHER THAT ALL
THE INGREDIENTS TO KEEP A UNIFORM TENDERNESS OF THE POTATOES.
WHEN THE POTATOES ARE COOKED ALREADY. YOU CAN PUT OFF THE
FIRE. USUALLY RIGHT AFTER THE POTATOES ARE COOKED THE SAUCE
OF THE ADOBO LESSENS, MY FAMILY PREFER TO HAVE A SAUCY ADOBO
SO I ADD A LITTLE WATER AND LET IT BOIL FOR A WHILE BEFORE I PUT OFF
THE FIRE.
PUT THE ADOBO IN A DEEP BOWL READY FOR SERVING. GARNISH WITH CURLED ONION LEAVES. WE ALWAYS EAT ADOBO WHILE ITS STILL WARM
AND WITH RICE. IT COMPLEMENTS WITH CUCUMBER SALAD AND FOR
DESSERT, ANY FRESH FRUIT IN SEASON WILL DO.FOR ME I LOVE TO HAVE
A GLASS OF COLD COCA COLA AFTER EATING ADOBO.

HOW TO COOK ADOBO IN SO MANY WAYS USING THE SAME PROCEDURE?
ADD CHICKEN TO THE PORK SO WE CAN HAVE CHICKEN/PORK ADOBO.
HMM...TASTE SO GOOD.
FOR THE VEGETARIANS, DO NOT USE PORK AND POTATOES, USE EGGPLANT INSTEAD SO WE CAN HAVE EGGPLANT ADOBO, ALSO OKRA ADOBO IS VERY DELICIOUS..
TO THE SEAFOOD LOVERS, DO NOT USE PORK AND POTATO, USE SQUID
SLICE THEM BEFORE COOKING, SO WE CAN HAVE SQUID ADOBO.

PORK ADOBO IF PLACED IN A DEEP FREEZER WILL LAST EVEN FOR A MONTH.YOU MAY COOK PLENTY AND PUT IT IN SMALL TUPPERWARES
WARM IN THE MICROWAVE WHAT YOU ONLY NEED TO EAT.ADOBO IS
VERY PRACTICAL FOR PICNICS AND SOME OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THAT
NEEDS A FULL MEAL.

HAVE A NICE ADOBO TIME....
