arroz caldo 4

Chicken Arroz Caldo Ingredients • 4 chicken thighs or drumsticks • 2 cups of sticky rice (uncooked) • 1 qt of chicken stock (fat free, sodium free)Arroz Caldo Filipino food recipe is a ginger flavored rice-chicken soup delicacy, traditionally a good food for the sick.

Arroz Caldo Recipe, makes 6 servings

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
1 1-inch piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped, about 1/2 tablespoon
1 small onion, chopped, about 1/3 cup
pinch of saffron
6 chicken wings, or 1 large boneless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup short-grain rice
4 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons fish sauce
3 hard-boiled eggs, sliced for garnish
2 spring onions, thinly sliced for garnish
3 calamansi or limes

Sauté the garlic in oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer the garlic to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and set aside. Add the ginger, onion, and saffron and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken and brown for about 5 minutes. Add the rice, chicken stock, and fish sauce, cover the pan, and simmer over medium to low heat. Stir frequently and simmer until the chicken and rice are cooked through, about 25 to 30 minutes.

Ladle the arroz caldo into bowls and serve with bowls of hard-boiled egg, spring onion, fried garlic, calamansi and fish sauce on the side.

Cooking Notes

1. This recipe makes a fairly thick rice porridge, which I love. For a thinner arroz caldo add more cups of chicken stock. My mom and I both use short-grain rice but she sometimes uses sticky or glutinous rice to make a thicker porridge.

2. When reheating, add some chicken stock or water to the porridge and warm over medium heat.

3. For the more adventurous, tripe can be used instead of chicken.

Mabuhay, to our Filipino Food Recipes Mabuhay (ma-boo-high) means welcome in Tagalog, the Filipino, or Pilipino.Pork Siomai Recipe BBQ Pork Chops Lechon (Spit Roast) "Fiesta version" 3 to 4-pound pork shoulder, with skin.

Ingredients:

1 to 2 kilos of pork (you can choose the shoulder or the leg part)

2 tablespoons of rock salt

1 bottle of soda drink (7-up or Sprite)

1 big onion peeled

1 ginger pounded

2 liters of water

some cooking oil for frying

Procedure:

Start by cleaning the pork. Do not cut them. It is preferable you choose pork without bones and with some fat on it. Put the cleaned pork on a deep casserole (like crock pot or pressure cooker), put the rock salt, ginger, onion and pour the soda drink and the water. Cover this and let this cook for at least two hours (for normal casserole and an hour for pressure cooker) at a medium fire. Cook until the pork becomes tender. You can keep the broth for further cooking like; pancit or mami noodle soup. Drain well the pork. It is highly recommended to cook them the next fry them the next day. In a frying pan, pour your cooking oil, as on as the oil is very hot put the pork cover it. Let it cook for about ten minutes each side or until it is golden brown. You can serve this with a spicy vinegar or lechon sarsa.

fresh pork ham roast (or boneless shoulder picnic roast, a hog's head, or any parts of pork.A Pinoy Recipe My All Favorite Filipino Recipes.

Once you have boiled and dried/refrigerated the pork liempo, see Part I here, then the question is, what do you want next, Lechon Kawali or Bagnet? This is how I understand the difference, and please, please, any Ilocanos out there, correct me if I am wrong, as I can definitely be wrong on this… If you want Lechon Kawali, you literally heat up oil in a kawali (or wok, pan, pot) and when the oil is hot, add the pre-boiled pork (remove from the fridge an hour before you are going to cook it to warm it up to room temperature) and hope you don’t get hit by any of the fat splattering like mini-missiles of pain. Cook this at high heat for say 12-15 minutes until the skin is crisp and it is a nice golden honey color. It should be removed from the fat, allowed to rest for a few minutes and chopped up into bite sized pieces. Essentially, once chopped up, you should have crispy bits of skin and caramelized bits of meat/fat/skin AND a more juicy fatty pork in the interior of the hunk of pork. This is served with either some lechon sauce or any combination of sawsawans that your heart desires.


The key here is the beautiful “blistering” of the pork fat that borders on the miraculous as the pale unappetizing chilled lardy mass is transformed into a beautifully burnished, crisp and totally appetizing result just minutes later. While this is almost certainly one of the worst culprits for clogged human arteries, it is almost certainly one of the yummiest ways to achieve them. I like my lechon kawali served with homemade acharra on the side and LOTS and LOTS of rice please.

Now if you want Bagnet instead, you take the same pork and have it warm up on the kitchen counter, then you fry it completely submerged in hot fat but at a low heat, with the fat just barely gurgling around the meat. You fry this mass for a good 45-60 minutes until it is a gorageous deep caramel color (but not burned), and oddly, the splattering has gone down to a minimum. I take this latter characteristic to mean there is little moisture left and essentially what you have is a big fat meaty chicharon of sorts. I did my version in a deep fryer (with the cover) and it was a total breeze; the results in the photos speak for themselves.


BUT, I must relate that these little Bagnets cost me about PHP4,000 to make, almost more than the price of Kobe Beef… why? Becuase the (110V) heat requirements of the deep fryer burned out two adapters and fried an expensive AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) Yikes! I thought I was going to burn down the house. There is an old Chinese tale that goes something like this: a man left his pig in a house in China and the house caught fire and the next day he returned to shift through the remnants and he found the first roasted pig ever. Can you imagine if the headlines on Cooking Daily screamed “Marketman burns down the house with his Bagnet experiments.

Hahaha. I can laugh about it now. But I think I need an electrician to change my plug so that I won’t need an adaptor to get it into the wall socket. But back to the bagnet. Once it has deep-fried for an hour or so, take it out and let it cool. This is the form in which most folks most commonly buy the bagnet at Ilocos markets or occasionally, Manila specialty food vendors. I just saw some hours ago at a trade fair and they didn’t look half as good as the ones freshly cooked in these photos here. And they weren’t even crisp anymore as they had been driven down from Ilocos in chilled coolers. In this state, the bagnet will apparently keep roughly 3-4 weeks in your refrigerator, or longer in your freezer.

To serve your bagnet, heat up the oil YET AGAIN, and chop your bagnet into smaller bite-sized pieces and re-fry them for a few minutes to crisp them up. There are those that would argue that the result is utterly sublime… I certainly would if it were freshly made and freshly fried and in the first photo up top. It was excellent. But there are detractors who would argue that it CAN taste a little stale and dry, almost like tasteless fried cardboard or something… and I can also buy that argument if the bagnet is too old and poorly fried, etc. We tasted bagnet all over Ilocos Sur and Ilocos Norte and the samples ranged from delicious to forgetable, just in case you wondered if there was a lot of variation. In Ilocos, htis is served with a side dish of KBL (Kamatis, Bagoong, Lasona or chopped tomatoes, fish sauce and onions). So what do you guys prefer? The one fry version with a little bit of juiciness in Lechon Kawali, or the double fried and crisper version better known as Bagnet? Oh and one last thing, the pork cooked with spices BEAT OUT the just salted version by a significant margin.Enjoy the photos, and I have checked myself into the Heart Center for artery de-clogging after 3 kilos of homemade lechon kawali and bagnet. I could but I won’t make this for this year’s Christmas giveaways.:)

Arroz Caldo | Yummy Filipino Recipe's

arroz caldo

arroz caldo topped with crispy flaked chicken, chicken chicharrones, crispy fried.Arroz caldo is so yummy and the best ever comfort food


This month's theme for the Kulinarya Cooking Club is the well-loved classic Filipino Arroz Caldo.
Since I have already posted an Arroz Caldo recipe sometime July this year (see: Arroz Caldo) , I decided to add a bit of twist to the original. And that's no other than adding crispy adobo flakes.
I have some left over chicken adobo from yesterday, or shall I say I reserved half part of it hehehe since I've been thinking of putting some for today's arroz caldo. I would want to come up with something different coz this is my very first Kulinarya entry. I want everybody to like it, as much as me and the whole gang (meaning: my family) loved it.
The adobo flakes gave a nice flavor on it, as what i have imagined it.
Today's arroz caldo is so perfect, so comforting. The sun is up outside, but the wind is really chilly. Grrr! lamig! But nevertheless, this is a food that you can eat any season, anytime of the day. Enjoy.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup uncooked rice (or 1 cup ordinary rice + 1/2 cup glutinous rice), washed and drained
3 cups chicken adobo flakes
3 tbsp cooking oil
10 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
2 thumb-sized ginger, chopped
1 tsp kasubha (safflower)
8-10 cups chicken broth
fish sauce, to taste
ground black pepper, to taste
hard-boiled eggs
spring onions, chopped

How to prepare:
Over low heat, toast the garlic in a pot. We want it nice golden brown. When done, remove the garlic from the pot. Set aside.
On the same pot, same oil, let the adobo flakes turn into our desired crispy flakes (but not burnt) so keep on stirring for about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken flakes when done. Set aside.
On the same pot and same oil , saute ginger. Add rice, kasubha and chicken broth. Cover and let cook over medium heat.
When it boils, lower heat. Stir and season with fish sauce. Let simmer for about 15 minutes, but stir once in a while to keep rice from sticking on the pot.
Best served when hot. Top with eggs, spring onion, toasted garlic and adobo flakes.

Sisig | Yummy Filipino Recipe's

Sisig

Sisig is truly Filipino. From what I heard it was concocted by the food loving folks in Pampanga. In fact there’s a place in Angeles City, about
10 minutes drive from Clark, where you will find authentic sisig being served. Some even claim this was the place where this humble dish
originated.

Originally, sisig was made from chopped parts of a pig’s head ears, snout, the brain, etc. Over the years it was reinvented into simple
minced meat served on a sizzling platter with chili, liver, onion and seasoned with calamansi and vinegar.

Different orders of sisig come in pork, chicken, tuna, chorizo, bangus, and tofu. Adding raw egg on the dish while it’s sizzling hot heightens
the flavor as well.

Here’s a simple sisig recipe:

Ingredients:

1-1/2 lbs pork cheeks (or 2 lbs deboned pork hocks)
1/2 lb beef or pork tongue
1/2 lb beef or pork heart
1/2 lb liver (pork, beef or chicken)
2 cups water (for boiling)
1 cup pineapple juice (for boiling)
1 tsp whole black peppers (for boiling)

Marinade seasonings:

1 cup chopped onions
3-4 finger hot peppers (siling labuyo) (seeded and chopped)
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup calamansi juice (lemon juice)
1/4 cup pineapple juice
1 tbsp minced fresh ginger
l clove garlic, minced
1 tsp whole black pepper (crushed)
1 pc bay leaf (crushed)
Salt to taste

Preparation:
Hot sisig plate

* Combine pork cheeks (or deboned pork hocks), heart, and tongue in pineapple juice, salt, water and crushed whole black pepper and bring to a boil; simmer for about 1 hour or until tender.
* Drain and cool to room temperature.
* Slice pork cheeks/hocks, liver, heart and tongue, into 2″X3″ X 1/4″ thick pieces.
* Place in bamboo skewers and grill over charcoal briquettes until pork rind is crisp and browned.
* Chop the grilled pork cheeks/hocks, liver, heart, and tongue into 1/4 inch sized cubes;
* Mix the chopped meat with the marinade seasoning mix of garlic, ginger, onions, vinegar, calamansi juice, hot peppers (siling labuyo), bay leaf, salt and pepper;
* Keep the marinated mixture in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours before serving.

A warning, though, for the weak of heart, sisig can be very fatty and may cause hypertension attack. So it’s good to know that you have healthier options in tuna, bangus or tofu sisig. Still they should be taken moderately.

Ampalaya Con Carne | Yummy Filipino Recipe's

Ampalaya Con Carne

Ingredients:

2 - 4 pieces of ampalaya (bitter melon), cut in half length-wise, de-seeded and sliced cross-wise
2 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 cup chopped onion
8 1/2-inch slices of ginger
1 can of tausi (salted black beans)
2 lb beef, cut into 1 x 1 1/2 inch strips
1 tsp corn starch
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 cup water

Preparation:

Prepare Ampalaya by cutting it in half lengthwise and removing the seeds. Make sure you scrape the white stuff off also. Slice it ¼ of an inch thick diagonally and place in a bowl large enough to fit all of it. Next smother it with plenty of salt and add water just above the ampalaya and let it soak for 20 minutes. (the salt will draw water and "bitterness" out) After soaking, rinse it thoroughly and make sure all the salt has been rinsed off.

Marinade beef strips in a mixture of corn starch, soy sauce, sesame oil and a few slices of ginger. If possible, pound ginger - for about 30 mins or so.

Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in pan. Brown beef and remove when reasonably brown. Set aside.

Using the same oil, add onion, garlic and remaining ginger - and saute until onion becomes transparent. Add sliced ampalaya and a tbsp oyster sauce. Add beef and 1/4 cup of water mixed with a teaspoon of cornstarch (thickens sauce). Simmer for about 3-5 mins. Add black beans. Be careful when adding the black beans as it is very salty. Maybe just a tablespoon or so.

Pinoy Pork Barbecue (BBQ) popular version | Yummy Filipino Recipe's

Pinoy Pork Barbecue (BBQ) popular version

Here it is, the Pinoy version of pork BBQ. This appetizer food is very popular in the Philippines. You will find this at just about every entrance in the middle class subdivisions and especially on the market sidewalks. A favorite among most Filipinos.

Filipino’s eat this BBQ as an appetizer, meal, or a snack. This particular recipe has been a tradition for Filipino’s when it comes to street barbecuing. It inspired me to post this recipe to give our craving kababayan’s (fellow pinoys) that have been away from the Philippines a little trip down memory lane where street food is just a couple of steps away. This is fairly simple to make, but it does take a little bit of time to marinate. Just remember, the longer you let it marinate the better the taste (you have to marinate if for at least one day but no more than three days). So be patient when it comes to preparing these mouth-watering street delights. Now, on to what you’re waiting for, the recipe.

5 Tbsp. Dark brown sugar

Tip:

Baste the pork with the remaining marinade to further enhance the flavor while barbecuing. Basting the meat will also help to keep it moist through the entire cooking process. Make sure you allow the marinade to cook when using it for basting, remember this is a left over marinade.

I also used the marinade sauce on porkchops but instead of marinating it, I cooked the prokchops first and then brushed it with the marinade sauce I used in the Pork barbecue a few minutes before it’s fully cooked.. It tasted great as well.. I did this because I was afraid to leave black burnt marinade on the pork chops since it’s thicker than the kebabs on the sticks...

I don’t know what kind of bbq grill you have, but if it does have a lid on it, try this cooking method. Set one side of it really hot by pushing most the charcoal on one side, and a little bit on the other side, then sear your Pork Chops on the hot side, once you get the sear mark on your Chops then you can transfer it on the other side with a lot less heat. Put the lid back on the grill and finish cooking your Pork Chops. Enjoy!
