Chinese-Style Spareribs »
I found this recipe from my old Turbo Broiler’s instruction manual and cookbook. I didn’t know that I still have this and was surprised to find it while cleaning out one of my cabinets. It’s about time I give at least one of the recipes a try and this spareribs appealed to me. It was [...]
Huli-Huli Pork Steak »
HULI-HULI means “turn-turn” referring to the method of cooking for this popular Hawaiian barbecue dish, it’s typically made with chicken. The recipe below is pork version, I used pork steak and cooked it over stove-top grill. The first time I tried this recipe, I used pork ribs; but instead of marinating it overnight, I braised [...]
Sangria Pork Stew »
We received a few bottles of red wine as gifts last Christmas and since I cannot drink anything with alcohol content above 4 % I decided to just use it for cooking- stews and gravies mostly. I’d like to share this super delicious and simple pork stew that I cooked in red wine. This dish was [...]
Lechon Paksiw »
Paksiw is a dish cooked in vinegar and Lechon is a whole pig slow-roasted (with frequent basting) in a bamboo skewer over charcoal for several hours – the result is succulent, tender meat and crispy skin–really mouthwatering-delicious! Oh my, I’m drooling!! :P Lechon is a staple on special occasions and during Holiday season; this dish, [...]
Meatballs Sandwich »
Like most sandwiches, this is a cinch to prepare if you already have the following: hoagie or sub rolls, marinara sauce and meatballs, all home made in advance or store-bought, but.. It’s just as easy if you do it all from scratch in less than an hour (except for the bread, just buy good quality [...]
Sukiyaki (すき焼き) »
I know Sukiyaki, the song- a beautiful, sentimental song translated from a popular Japanese song but I had no idea what a sukiyaki dish was, I did have a vague childhood recollection of it as sauteed meat and veggies but I can’t quite remember the taste. I recently had sukiyaki from a Japanese resto and [...]
Pulled Pork (Slow-Cooked) »
This is the recipe that I always use for making pulled pork, it’s hassle-free, I just put everything in the crockpot and it takes care of itself, which means free or extra time for me to do other things ü. Set your alarm if your slow-cooker doesn’t have a timer (like mine’s) so you won’t [...]
Beef Salpicao (Salpicado) »
Beef Salpicao is a Filipino dish of Spanish or Portuguese influence. It’s beef tenderloin cut into small pieces or strips and marinated in olive oil and sauteed with garlic..lots of garlic! Really simple and easy and so quick to cook just allot some time for marinating. I like to serve this with our favorite side, [...]
Pork Milanese (Italian Breaded Pork) »
Another breaded pork recipe, this time it’s Italian..Ole!! :D It’s basically the same with the tonkatsu and schnitzel (German breaded pork ), the addition of oregano and nutmeg makes it Italian (I guess..) A squeeze of lemon is just what it needs but you can serve it with any sauce/gravy that you like by [...]
Tonkatsu (Japanese Breaded Pork) »
Make it fun. It doesn’t have to be complicated. It will be what it will be – I’m loving this quote that I picked up from Gwyneth Patrow’s cook book. It’s exactly how I feel about cooking, I just could not articulate it…it applies to my life as well. :) Here’s an easy and [...]
