Corned Beef and Veggies in Broth : Modern Nilaga Soup - Canned Goods Leveled Up #lockdown

This is a copy cat recipe from a modern Filipino resto. Perfect during lockdown, having the ingredients in the cupboard. Fresh corned beef is only available in artisan stores here and a bit expensive too, so most of us use canned in the Ph. There are good and tasty brands in the supermarket now, my fave is Delimondo.
This is great for cold nights/days. Here we eat Nilaga all year round, on hot and hotter days LOL.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
If you're using the fresh corned beef, boil in water first until tender. Saute in a pot the garlic and onions. Add water and the fresh beef. Season with salt, peppercorns, bay leaf, beef broth cube. SKIP THIS IF USING CANNED BEEF.

If using canned version, start with sauteeing garlic and onions in oil in a pan. Add the canned corned beef, including the solid fat bits you see in it (that makes it tasty!). My favorite is the Delimondo brand atm. More expensive than the other local kinds but you can be sure it's 100% beef. Delicious too.

Transfer to a pot and add water. Season with salt, peppercorns, bay leaf, beef broth cube. This is a soup dish so you can add water depending on how much soup you want. Just taste and season or add more broth cube.

Drop in your mixed veggies, hard vegetables first and bring to a boil. Add the leafy veggies last as it cooks quickly. The traditional "Nilaga" vegetables include potatoes, cabbage, napa cabbage, pechay or bokchoy, carrots and green beans. I suppose u can try spinach too. Taste and season if needed. (unpeeled but brushed potatoes, it's my thing, LOL, not very cheffy but I want the nutrients in it).

Serve while hot. Perfect for cold nights/days. Here we eat it year round, on hot and hotter days LOL. Below is a variation with beef shank marrow and noodles.

If you like the tartness of Thai Tom Yum then you will like this dish. If you can't take the heat of Tom Yum then you will like this better! Lol. Filipino Sinigang can be made with prawns, pork, beef or fish.Salmon is the only seafood I like in Sinigang. Other people prefer Milkfish, Tilapia or Shrimp. For salmon, you can use salmon steaks, the belly part (fave!), or even the head. In this cook, I used the head. SpottedByD
