Pork Adobo

1-1/2 lb. pork shoulder or butt, cut into 1-1/2" cubes.
1/3 cup of rice (or sugar cane) vinegar.
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. salt
3 (or more!) cloves of garlic, minced
2 or 3 bay leaves
1/2 cup water
1/4 to 1/3 tsp. pepper (black, white, whatever!)
2 to 3 Tbsp. cooking oil

Combine everything but the OIL in a stainless steel or enameled pot
and let it stand for at least half an hour at room temperature or in the
"fridge"... Then simmer, covered for one hour (or until the meat is tender), then
drain and reserve the sauce.
Heat cooking oil in skillet and brown the meat on all sides. Place in
a serving dish. Pour off all the remaining cooking oil and add the reserved
sauce and cook for a few minutes... (Be sure to scrape up all the browned
bits that stuck to the pan, as it's one of the "best parts" there!)...
Pour the sauce over the meat and serve on white or brown rice
(previously cooked).
Chicken or chicken and pork are often used together... Serves 4 to 6
people (I can just 2 meals out of it---I'm a BIG eater !)... Ha! Ha!
Quick, simple, and only takes an hour of cooking time.
Classic basic dish, and very Fillipino ! ! !
Hope you'll try it ? ? ?
