Pork Adobo Recipe
Ingredients
- 1.2kg pork belly
- 5 tbsp coconut vinegar
- 2 tsp sugar
- 4 tbsp dark soy
- 4 tbsp light soy
- 8 cloves garlic, diced
- 4 bay leaves
- 400ml water
- Spring onion for garnish
Method
1. Dice your pork belly into roughly 3cm cubes.
2. Marinate your diced pork belly with the white vinegar, sugar, dark soy, light soy, garlic and bay leaves for 1-6 hours.
3. Drain the pork belly from the marinade. In a large heavy-based pot, brown off the pork belly so you have good colour on all sides.
4. Once your pork belly is nicely browned, add the marinade to the pot with the water. Bring this to a simmer, turn low and cook for 1.5 hours or until the pork is super tender.
5. For the last 30 minutes, take the lid off the pot so the sauce reduces and becomes nice and sticky.
6. Serve your pork adobo with rice and some optional spring onion as garnish.

I love it Andy! I hate to be a buzz kill but that last bottle with the red label is Japanese Sukiyaki sauce, it is made of Soy, sake, mirin and sugar. i assume you can't read Japanese, lucky for you, I can, so just a heads up it will burn fast if you treat it like soy sauce. Happy cooking!

*The thing with **_Adobo_** is, it has different variants. The Philippines has 7000+ islands so it’s only natural to have **_Adobo_** be cooked according to the taste, culture, and ingredients prevalent in the region. And for as long as the **_Adobo_** has its basic ingredients, it’ll still be **_Adobo,_** no right and wrong.* I like mine without sugar or Sprite/7Up or anything that will give a hint of sweetness. I want the old-fashioned one, with hardboiled eggs, and potatoes. And I remember the _Adobo_ of my officemate from the Bicol region. One is with plenty of red chilis, and another variant is with coconut milk.

I was taught to make pork Adobo by a Navy Senior Chief who was from the Philippines. He used pork butt, as that is what he could . He was in charge of the mess for our field exercises. Best meal we had that week. 😋

Great version of our Filipino Adobo. You nailed it from the marinating process 'til it is well cooked and ready to serve. Just awesome...

[@fyeelessarndra3392]

came here from Chef Brian Tsao's video, I must say this pork adobo looks divine and I bet it taste like heaven too. I'm from Sabah (Malaysian Borneo) and we have a similar dish called "Masak Kicap" which literally translates to "cooked with soy sauce". The only difference with adobo is that we don't use bay leaves, instead we use spices like cloves, cinnamon sticks, star anise, coriander seed and cardamom (and I add a few bird's eye chillies because I love spicy food and the spice cuts through the pork fat), and we put other vegies in like large onions and/or carrots (but I don't put any in mine LOL), and we use any types of meat (pork/fowl/beef/buffalo etc.)..imagine eating this with piping hot, freshly cooked rice 🤤

[@iamnotgordon6205]

I'm a Filipino and I've been cooking pork adobo for decades. You have this recipe spot on (and its absolutely ok to substitute Filipino soy sauce with a combination of light and dark soy sauce). One thing I would like to suggest though is that after cooking the adobo it would be better to pan fry the meat until you achieve a light sear, while simultaneously reducing the sauce separately. Combine the meat and sauce when plating to achieve a better aesthetic (although its also fine to combine before plating if you're eating at home). Filipino's also love to eat pork adobo with hard boiled eggs marinated in the same sauce mixture. The rice you have in the video is also spot on. Never eat this dish with long grain rice, as the taste would not be the same without appropriate amount of starch.

[@themorn2112]

That's how I cook it (Kampampangan way) using Datu Puti soy sauce and Apple cider vinegar. I cook this using Pork belly and Pig feet. I pan fry the pork for 5 minutes, then add vinegar and cook for 5 minutes to take the sour edge off (No sugar added) before covering and simmering. I tend to go with Thai Jasmine rice. I will definitely give this version a shot.

My daughter also cooks it with the same ingredients as yours but without marinating. It's also good but maybe her adobo is a bit saltier. By the way i know 3 adobo recipies: 2 from my grandmother such as the adobong manok sa gata( chicken adobo in coconut milk) and the other the simmered adobo with soy sauce and tomatoes while the third one is from my mother -in-law and it's called adobong matanda (old adobo)from my hometown in Taytay, Rizal without soy sauce but with a dash of salt and patis(fish sauce) all 3 recipes have the basic ingredients up to the vinegar plus the featured ingredients that I've mentioned.

You can add some coconut milk if you're fond of it. It's a different style of adobo, there's also adobo made with just vinegar, garlic and black peppercorns called adobong puti (white adobo).

[@MrTRexPh]

Some Filipino restaurants (turo-turo) have hard boiled eggs in the adobo and it works so well. You should try it. Some also put potatoes. I personally just leave it plain because I forget to add them. You can also do a chicken pork adobo. It's basically cooking two types of adobo. Then mixing them. Also, you don't need to measure the amount of soy sauce and vinegar. Let the ancestors speak to you. Use white vinegar. Try all of these, you won't regret it.

Chef, there are actually different versions of adobo in different household. In my home we put pineapple. Sometimes like a stew and sometimes almost dry which is my favorite. Sometimes marinated and sometimes a fast cook. One friend cooked it without soy sauce and it's called puting adobo or white adobo. Sometimes it's fried and sometimes boiled only. You can use chicken or pork for adobo with or without the skin. Yes to lots of garlic. Yes to peppercorns and laurel leaf. But your version got the basic ingridients and looks delicious. Cheers!

You can boil the pork first then sauté the garlic and then add the other ingredients. Simple

[@jojocastillo2923]

@@walalangtv137.... Actually the video shows the correct way of cooking adobo. You marinate the meat first. By its very name adobo which came from the Spanish word adobar which means to marinate. Unfortunately, the native name of our dish was lost in history but in books written during the early years of Spanish colonization of the Philippines, the natives had this method of preserving meat in vinegar, salt and spices (no soy sauce) called "quilao" (kilaw) which they would later cook. The Spanish chronicler noted that this has some similarities to the way they make adobo in Spain and called the native dish "adobo de los naturales" which means adobo of the natives. This name stuck and later became shortened to just adobo. Another example of name shortening is bulalo. The original name of the dish is Nilagang Bulalo ng Baka (bulalo is a cut of meat coming from the leg of a steer or even carabao composed of the femur bone with the surrounding shank meat and attached tendons and ligaments) to differentiate it from the more common and regular Nilagang Karne ng Baka/Nilagang Baka. That dish started in Batangas and would later become popular and would later become associated with Tagaytay. But take note, Tagaytay and even Cavite where it is located do not have a cattle industry. However, Batangas has a thriving cattle industry and known for it's beef. Tanauan City where nilagang bulalo started and became popular (also in Sto Tomas) is only just a short drive from Tagaytay City. Anyway, the dish became so popular that when it is being ordered customers would just say bulalo which was understood to be nilagang bulalo. What's the difference between nlagang baka and bulalo? Nothing except for the cut of beef used.

You can never go wrong with adobo! As long as you have the basic ingredients! I actually followed your recipe! It’s pretty good!

[@marcdanielmanalili336]

You should see the food network adobo, they went wrong on so many levels

[@amn2760]

@@marcdanielmanalili336 Yeah, it almost impossible to ruin adobo but somehow the suit guy still managed to f⬛ it all up

[@ruffneck_asian3688]

Ive watched your other asian cuisine videos and I gotta say, you got my parents and myself, our asian approval. Great job as always.

[@arlenemagalgali6411]

Best way to cook Adobo!!! Thanks Chef!!!!

[@thekylester]

The one thing i respect the most about chefs like you is that you always like to see what mistakes or anything else and learn from the mistakes and try again from what was suggested.

[@kozenfarm]

Yum - makes sense to marinade first then brown for saturated flavor. Also love your humble but worldly approach to food/life! Mahalo!

[@andy_cooks]

Thank you

[@bcd4562]

This is like my 96yo Filipina mom taught me. Kept it simple and that's so great 👍

[@amoro8682]

This is how my father cooked adobo, and this is also how I make it. There are so many methods out there, but this has the best results.

[@byron9369]

Josh Weissman and Andy are the only chefs I’ve seen that cooked adobo with 100% precision. Gotta respect that. ❤️

[@jordanbabcock9349]

Weissman is unbearable though.

If only Weissman returned to his previous calmer persona and stopped cooking sanwiches and pizzas for the 19873th time

I love that you like to cook adobo all the time now. Thanks, Chef Andy. 🇵🇭

[@mariakimlofranco1057]

Fantastic video on this one Chef! I can't wait to try this one myself.

[@andy_cooks]

It's a great dish!

[@codemonru3535]

you made every Filipinos happy on this video ❤

[@heyjowsucksii4128]

Filipino here.. it's true that adobo is dish that can be altered depending to your liking. As for me, I like it with boiled egg, pineapple tidbits and a good amount of red chillis. You did a good one on this chef! Keep up 🎉

[@ravehammer]

Skin on heard. Ho-lee, that dish looks so easy to make, def gonna try this one. Keep up the great work Andy!

[@RedheadNGingerbread]

I started watching a few of your shorts on various platforms. Now I’m on YT binging your vids. I’m so impressed with the authenticity of your food, regardless of its origin, like this one and the som tum. As an Asian woman, I can tell you’re the real deal. Keep up the great work!

[@eduardochavacano]

So many fake adobo recipe

[@mizeria777]

Love this! This is the type of adobo i like, dark, glazey, sweet and salty, charred edges. Though I like putting pineapple and egg on my adobo, makes it tangy sweeter

[@Dormantee]

Hey Andy, I made this last night for my filipino family, and it was an absolute SMASH! I did a little variance where I substituted 1 tablespoon of vinegar with Pinakurat Spiced Vinegar, and I think it really compliments the pork. Thank you for the recipe!

[@MariaEubanas-qy9wc]

Thank you for simple easy to follow recipe. I will be following this but using chicken instead 😊

[@neilz.]

Adobo is awesome and easy. Id love to see your take on another filipino classic. Bicol Express. Thanks bro!

[@brendonreyes6622]

Damn, that's spot on. Try Adobong tuyo, which means to dry it out. You render the marinated pork until soft, and wait to fry it in its oil.

[@robTCGZ]

I made this today for lunch. I sbstituted coconut vinegar with rice vinegar because I cannot find the former one. I gotta say, it was delicious. It's so flavorful. Can't wait to make it again!

[@paul041689]

Definitely our family's tomorrows dish...gotta wake up early and go to the market... thanks for the inspiration...

[@ginopineda3974]

Like uncle Roger said Filipino adobo is hard to mess up and you nailed it look delicious 🤤

[@ronzedplaysYT]

Chef Andy, you have to try White Adobo wherein the soy sauce is replaced with patis (Filipino fish sauce) and twice the amount of white vinegar and garlic 🧄 it’s great to have especially during cold seasons. It warms the throat and it’s good. Love the adobo and love the content as always! ♥️

[@jeffreyallanong9108]

Right on! That's mouth watering!!

[@Prawnstar91]

I made this tonight - f@$kin awesome! Thank you

[@HermanHermDawgCasaol]

Love love love pork adobo. Can't wait to try this recipe out.

[@andy_cooks]

It's such a good dish

[@steckdosenmann]

hello andy i REALLY love all your content especially your shorts theyre so well executed and you are so authentic and obviously very very experienced so its very nice to see a true chef take on this wide variety of international dishes! I wonder, yould you ever do a video about professional kitchen hygiene? Like when to use what chopping board, when to wash my hands, when to clean my knifes or surfaces and stuff. Would really mean a lot coming from you! Thank you and keep on and stay safe =)

[@MtnBadger]

You'll be proud to know that I have a cutting/prep board that size... It's great! Highly recommend if you have the space! This is similar to the Adobo we make down in the Atlanta, GA area and it's great 👍

[@rdc1431]

Awesome cooking! Keeping it original ❤️👌
