Adobong Pusit

This is my version of Adobong Pusit

The things you will need:
ginger, garlic, and onion (chopped, sliced, diced, whatever you like darling)
of course, Pusit (squid)
don't forget the Ink Sacs
2T oyster sauce, 2T vinegar, 3T soy sauce, 1/2 cup sprite

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



here's how it works:

saute everything in oil

add in squid

then toss in the ink sacs, cook for 2 minutes

then add oyster sauce, saute till everything gets coated


pour in sprite (yes I got greedy, I has to put moaaaaar :3 )

Let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes. I know people would be saying "that's gonna be like chewin rubber".
NOPE! 15-20 minutes is enough for it to get tender. I don't have problems with overcooking squid, cause then I wont have any problems with having leftovers and having to re-heat them again :)

just remember that half-way through the simmering era of the cooking of the adobo, don't forget to add in the vinegar. just drizzle it on top and leave it covered. it is important not to stir after the addition of the vinegar.

a little salt and pepper to taste

Here is what its gonna look like after



Pork & Mushroom


I like how our freezer is so full of stuff after the holidays. But I'm tired of having to heat and reheat the leftovers. So I'm making something different for tonight's Dinner.

Here are the Ingredients:
Garlic

A can of Mushrooms

(frozen) Bacon Fat: but oil and butter will work fine

a bouillon cube; pork ofcourse

liquid Seasoning

Sliced Pork
Flour or Cornstarch






Let's start cooking!
Saute garlic in oil


toss in meat, and saute till brown

Add mushrooms, stir

pour in 1 water, bouillon cube, and pepper

Cover and simmer, when meat is done, make slurry and add in.
simmer for 10 more minutes


And Serve! :)


I was home alone with a sick kitteh so I decided to share with him the experience.
