Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork.Pork shoulder or pork belly are both good choices for adobo. They are both fatty cuts of meat that will become tender and flavorful when braised in the sauce.
  • Marinate the pork overnight.This will help the flavors of the sauce to penetrate the meat and make it more flavorful. If you don't have time to marinate the pork overnight, you can marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the sauce from scorching.
  • Simmer the adobo low and slow.This will help the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender. Simmer the adobo for at least 1 hour, or until the pork is fall-apart tender.
  • Serve the adobo with rice.Adobo is traditionally served with rice, but it can also be served with noodles or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Filipino-Korean adobo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and bay leaves gives the adobo a unique flavor that is both savory and tangy. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve the adobo with rice and enjoy!
