Corned Beef Nilaga
Corned Beef Nilaga
Here is another Filipino recipe that you wouldn’t find on a menu at a restaurant. Corned beef nilaga is the Pinoy take on the classic New England boiled dinner: corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes. Instead of boiling a corned beef brisket for hours on end, canned chunky corned beef is used. This hearty soup is ready in 15 minutes; tasting like it took all day to cook.
Ingredients
- 4 cups beef stock
- 1 small onion quartered
- 1 large potato peeled and cubed
- 1/2 tsp black peppercorns crushed
- 12 green beans ends trimmed
- 12 oz canned corned beef chunky
- 1/4 green cabbage
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Bring a pot of beef stock to a boil. Add the onions, potatoes, and peppercorns. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add in the green beans. Simmer for 2 minutes.
- Add in the cabbage and corned beef. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Season with salt.
