THE BEST PORK ADOBO RECIPE

If there's any food that reminds everyone of the Philippines, it's probably Pork Adobo. Even famous foreign celebrities that are being interviewed here, they usually say how much they love this dish. It is actually considered as the national dish because of its popularity.

I want to share this recipe to all Overseas Filipino Workers around the world. I know it's really hard to work abroad and live far away from your family. But having this dish can help you find comfort and relief especially when you are longing for home.

This is very easy to prepare, has long storage life and keeps well without refrigiration. Every Filipino family has its own version of this dish. I want you to try this one and tell me what's on your mind.



INGREDIENTS:

1 kilo pork (I always use pork belly in Adobo), chopped

2 tbsp garlic, minced

6 pcs dried bay leaves

1 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup vinegar

1 cup water

1 tbsp whole peppercorns

1/2 teaspoon sugar

all in one seasoning granules (as usual, I used Maggi Magic Sarap)

hard boiled eggs (optional)



COOKING PROCEDURES:

1. Prepare the marinade of soy sauce, vinegar, water, peppercorns and bay leaves. (do not stir)

2. In a large saucepan combine meat and marinade, cover and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes or until meat is tender. (Again, DO NOT STIR OR THE VINEGAR WILL HAVE A "RAW" TASTE. MAKE SURE YOU'RE COOKING OVER VERY LOW HEAT.)

3. Remove pork from the sauce. Set aside in two different bowls.

4. Heat up oil in a saucepan. Saute garlic. Cook the pork for about 3-5 minutes.

4. Pour the marinade and hard boiled eggs.

5. Add all in one seasoning granules and sugar to taste. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.

ENJOY!! :)
