My Very Own Yummy adobo
Pork Adobo is a popular Filipino Pork Recipe. The method of cooking this dish is called “inadobo”. It is safe to call this inadobong baboy na may patatas.

Adobo is considered as a signature Filipino dish. This particular recipe is different from the original basic recipe because of an additional ingredient, the potatoes.

Pork Adobo with Potato might not be a regional dish. This can be the result of someone’s idea to stretch a family’s grocery budget by adding fillers such as potatoes.

I think that Pork Adobo with Potatoes is a successful dish because it has a well balanced flavor. The potatoes absorb the excess vinegar and salt making it as tasty as the meat. I usually eat this with a little rice to control my carbohydrate intake, since potatoes are also rich in carbs.

–Every dish gets its flavour profile from the ingredients used. Learn how to balance and combine flavours to get your perfect mix. Adobo’s flavour profiles are simple but well-balanced:

1.Sour – Vinegar balances spice and enhances sweet notes. Try to use natural vinegar instead of distilled white vinegar.
2.Salty – Soy sauce, garlic, and chicken balance any bitterness and enhance sweet flavours.
3.Sweet – Adding sugar or oyster sauce to your dish will boost sweetness to complement the soy sauce.
4.Savoury – Bay leaves enhance overall dish flavour.
5.Spice – Peppercorns balance sweet and sour flavours.
