PORK ADOBO

This is my grandma's recipe combined with my mother's technique. The idea is to cook the meat while reducing the soy sauce and vinegar. It is important that you use Filipino brand soy sauce and vinegar for it to be authentic.

PORK ADOBO

INGREDIENTS:

1 lb pork country style ribs boneless (cut into bite size pieces)

1 large white onion (sliced)

1 cup water

¾ cup vinegar 

½ cup soy sauce 

black ground pepper

2 pieces bay leaf

3 cloves garlic (chopped)

2 to 3 tablespoon canola oil

Directions:

Combine pork, water, soy sauce, vinegar, onion, bay leaves and pepper in a medium soup pot. Cover and cook over medium heat for 30 minutes (you should have half the sauce than what you started with). Remove from heat.

Using a large sauté pan, heat oil and add garlic until fragrant. Using a slotted spoon transfer the pork mixture to the pan (reserve the sauce). Stir-fry for a few minutes and then add the sauce back, let it reduce until you only have a quarter of the sauce than what you started with. Serve with rice.
