You have no idea how much I miss all those yummy dishes I ate in Pampanga. I miss and think about them each and everytime I get hungry here in Dallas. Unfortunately its not going to be until 2 more years before we will visit Philippines together with my wife after she travels here. Hope my wife picked up a few recipes from her mother cause she is really a great cook..!

Try my fave ADOBO. It may also be cooked using pork or a combination of chicken & pork. Enjoy!!!

INGREDIENTS:
1 kl. chicken, cut into serving pieces
5 medium potatoes, quartered
2 cups of water
1 garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
peppercorns
SEASONINGS:
3 tbsp. Soy sauce
1 1/2 tbsp vinegar
1 Chicken cube
Salt to taste
PROCEDURE:
In a saucepan, combine chicken,garlic, bayleaf, peppercorns, salt & soy sauce.
Marinate for 30 minutes (optional).
Bring to a boil over medium heat, then cover.
Lower heat & cook until chicken is tender.
When chicken is almost cooked, add potatoes and chicken cube.
Add vinegar. Simmer for a few minutes & stir occassionally, making sure that the potatoes don't get overcooked.
TIP:
Instead of potatoes you can substitute black beans or bulaklak ng saging sometimes.
