Steps
- 1
Put your Pork, Onion, Garlic, Lemon Juice, Salt/Pepper in a big enough bowl.
- 2
Mix all ingredients thoroughly, Then top with Bay Leaves and Cover with Foil.
- 3
Marinate in the fridge for 1-3hrs.
- 4
Once marinated, pull out a deep and wide cooking pan and add cooking oil. Heat on medium.
- 5
While pan heats up, Mix your soy sauce, vinegar, and water in a measuring cup and set aside.
- 6
Once Oil is Hot, Remove bay leaves (Set Aside for Later!) And add your meat mixture to the hot pan.
- 7
Toss meat with spatula or wooden spoon until meat is browned, but not fully cooked.
- 8
Add back the Bay leaves.
- 9
Then slowly pour your soy sauce/vinegar mix over all the meat but DO NOT mix or toss meat until boiling hot, vinegar will make bitterness if you do.
- 10
Cover and Simmer on medium for 2hrs or until sauce has reduced to half the pan, possibly less and is a nice dark brown color.
- 11
Check on it every half an hour but no more often then this, The meat needs the covered steam to tenderize.
- 12
In meantime, boil your eggs to perfection, peel, set aside.
- 13
Then chop your baby potatoes, and set aside in a bowl of cold water so they do not oxidize.
- 14
In the last 20min, add your potatoes and start your rice to steam.
- 15
Add peeled boiled eggs during the final 7 minutes as well.
- 16
Scoot all meat to the side so the eggs may simmer in the juices.
- 17
Once sauce color/reduction has reached its full potential, and potatoes are completely cooked, turn off burner and keep covered.
- 18
Serve your plate of steamed rice, topped with Adobo and some extra juice as well with an egg, then enjoy! :)
- 19
This should be your finished pan of Adobo :)
