Classic Pork Adobo Recipe


Classic Pork Adobo Recipe


INGREDIENTS:
  • 250 grams pork (you may choose a fatty part but since I now vowed to eat healthily, I chose lean)
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large bay leaves
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • salt
  • ground pepper (others use peppercorns but I want mine ground for more flavour)
  • 1 1/2 tbsps sugar
  • 2 tbsps cooking oil (optional)
  • 2 small potatoes, wedged
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Wash your pork and drain it. Put it inside a traditional Filipino frying pan or kawali (as pictured above). The fate of your dish is in the hands of your kitchen blings. Really.
  2. Put the rest of the ingredients and make sure they are all mixed well together. If you have time, marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Set it on medium fire and cover. Cook until pork is tender.
  4. If pork's fork-ready, remove the sauce from the pan and set it aside on a bowl.
  5. Stir fry the meat. You may use cooking oil to get that perfect sizzling sound or you may add the sauce one tablespoon at a time so the pork will render its own oil (especially if you chose the fatty part).
  6. Don't let it burn! Put back the remaining sauce and simmer it for a minute or two so the sauce will thicken a bit.
  7. You can add fried potato wedges as an extender and garnish.
