Adobong Puti
Adobong Puti
This is another Filipino pork belly adobo recipe, except salt is used in place of soy sauce. Instead of having the soy flavor, the salt will help accentuate the vinegar and garlic. Serve this adobong with steamed rice. Garnish with lots of fried garlic bits.What’s great about this recipe other than the flavor is the price. The pork belly costs $4/lb at my asian market. The onion was $0.50. The rice was about $0.50 worth. The fried garlic bits $1. All of the other ingredients are pretty standard to have in your pantry. My point is that you can eat high quality food for less than the price of fast food. Put in the effort to cook more at home and eat out less.
