HOW TO COOK ADOBONG SITAW


How To Cook Adobong Sitaw –This dish is not your fancy stir-fry thing but I can tell, there are many fancy hotels serve this dish. There are many ways to cook Adobong Sitaw and I am sure you can make your very own version too. You can do experiments by using many ingredients like Tocino, Longanisa, Tinapa, Daing na Isda and infact I know a friend back in Chicago who cooks Adobong Sitaw with a beef jerky. Can you imagine that? When did you hear that somebody cooks Adobong Sitaw using a beef jerky as Sahog? Weird isn’t it? But hey, when I tasted it, all I could say was “holy crap! His one is delicious!” But I tell you, he didn’t put much effort on cooking it. It is not tricky at all and it does not require advance knowledge in culinary to cook a very delicious Adobong Sitaw. This recipe I am going to share with you is another version of it so instead of using beef jerky, we are going to use the canned meatloaf. Here is how to cook Adobong Sitaw:



Ingredients
3 tbsp cooking oil
1 tsp garlic (minced or crushed)
1 small onion (thinly sliced)
½ cup of low sodium barbecue marinade
4 cups of string bean or Sitaw (cut into 2 ½ sticks)
1 small can of meatloaf (diced)
1 tsp vinegar
Salt to taste

Cooking Procedure
  1. In a pot, bring water to a boil.
  2. Add the stringbean and simmer until almost cooked.
  3. Remove from the pot, use a colander to drain and set aside.
  4. In a pan, heat the oil and saute garlic and onion until golden brown.
  5. Add the meatloaf and stir-fry for half a minute.
  6. Add the marinade and stringbean, stir-fry for 5 minutes.
  7. Add a pinch or two of salt.
  8. Put in a serving plate and serve with hot rice.

HOW TO COOK BATCHOY WITH TOFU


How To Cook Batchoy With Tofu –recently I have discovered another version of this dish. Batchoy is originally cooked with blood but not all of us like it this way so I came up with the idea of replacing the blood with Tofu and this time we are going to cook Batchoy in another way. I am not sure if there are some people who cook it this way so I do not claim this recipe as my very own version of Batchoy. Here is the recipe:



Ingredients
1 kilo of Canton noodles
½ kilo of pork
½ kilo of pig’s liver (chopped into ¼” x ¼ “)
1 cup of diced Tofu
4 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of spring onions (chopped)
1 teaspoon of freshly ground pepper
2 cups of Chicharon (crushed)
2 heads of garlic (crushed)
15 cups of water

Cooking Procedure
  1. In a pan, heat oil and saute garlic until golden brown. Set aside.
  2. In the same pan, fry the Tofu until golden brown. Set aside.
  3. In a pot, boil water. Add pepper and salt. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Add the pork. Simmer until the pork is cooked.
  5. Add the Tofu and simmer for 5 minutes.
  6. Add the Sauteed garlic and Canton noodles and simmer until the noodles are cooked.
  7. Scatter spring onions and Chicharon over the noodles when serving.
