*The thing with **_Adobo_** is, it has different variants.

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.

My mum, from Ilocos, cooks our _Adobo_ using _"sukang Iloco",_ so it has a bit like a wine-y taste. _"Sukang Iloco",_ by the way, is a vinegar from the Ilocos province made from fermented sugarcane juice.

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.
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.
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!
have you tried it with gata "cream" with kalamansi "lime juice" on it? thats the version that my mother in law I tasted. and its one of my favorite version.
I am from Western Visayas part of the Philippines and we cook our adobo with atsuete for added taste and coloring plus tanglad (lemongrass), then cooked in coconut vinegar, a little soy sauce, looooots of garlic, red chili, and sugar until sauce dries up and the pork's oil comes out. I cook this version even when I'm already here in Manila because it reminds me so much of my life in the province and also because my housemates love it so much. ☺️
Since I saw one of your videos I realized how good you're cooking, I appreciate all the lessons...I always watch you from Angola🇦🇴 wish you more and more success
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 🤤
Filipino here. Amazing recipe. My grandma has a different take on the recipe, but yours is close to her's. The only difference is my grandma likes to add lots of red onions just before she serves it.
adobo has so many variants, it is a joke. You can add chocolate chips or tomato paste and it will still be Adobo by some Filipino who wants to be original.
Adobo can be cooked in so many ways, just the main ingredients then add the twist to your liking. That way you can enjoy it. Adobo have so many version here in the Philippines, and the one with potatoes is the best for me.
Hi Andy, I'm an avid here, thank you so much for featuring our native dish on your channel. I love adobo and would want to try cooking it the way you do. It looks good and delicious. 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. Just sharing from the Philippines Mabuhay!!!🇵🇭😍😍❤️❤️❤️😀
Looks good! As a former expat in Manila, hands down one of my favourite Filipino dish. It’s amazing how the recipe changes region by region - even between households.
Hi Andy, since am Filipino-American in NYC but belong to the Pampango region in the Philippines, basically Central Luzon, am versed in the prep of adobo, be it pork or a combination of pork and chicken. If not quite in a hurry, you can keep the marinade in the fridge overnight. Don't use too much pork fat in my cooking. But yours look good!
As a Filipino, this is a 2 thumbs up. Adding potatoes in there balances things a bit. But overall, this is great. I just love seeing foreign chefs cook Filipino foods. You just earned yourself a subscriber. 🙂
@@yabadoo7335 usually diff. parts of the Philippines add something in there, that's the basic Authentic recipe (this video). so adding Potatoes kind of like saying, I like my coffee with sugar sometimes, sometimes I like honey or sometimes I like it just black.. same goes with adobo, some like it with potatoes (which I sometimes do), sometimes people put banana (those big ones not the small sweet ones), sometimes pork and chicken adobo mix. so for Adobo all I can say is put anything if you think you like it just stick with the Basic ingredients. Soy sauce, Osyster sauce, Vinegar, Sugar, w/o Bayleaf.
@@yabadoo7335 There is no set recipe for Adobo in the Philippines. That's why as Uncle Roger said it's hard to mess it up. Yes, that's why I said potatoes balances the dish a bit, if the taste is a bit too salty or sour. To some extent, others put Hard boiled egg in there.
@@_K4OS You're totally correct with that bro. Not only potatoes but a lot of variations that I tried. I just preferred potatoes especially on the Chicken Adobo. 🙂
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.
I'm a filipino, adobo become part of our culture. But it's sad to say that adobo is originally from spanish that invaded us a century years ago PS. Sorry for my bad english 😂
Made Adobo for my filipina grandma some years ago (I'm german-filipino). Wasnt quite like hers but she was very proud and was still very good. Certainly need to to it again!
Andy… I TRULY appreciate the fact that you stuck to “Uncles Roger’s” version of this recipe! Absolute respect for his rendition of the recipe!!! I’m drooling!!!
This is exactly how my mom makes adobo when we were still in school. Yes including the spring onions on top! 🫣 She would marinate the night before and cook it while we were prepping. By the time the school bus arrives, our lunch box is ready with her glorious adobo. 😊 This dish really transports you back home. Thank you Chef! 💕
You did a great job! You can't really go wrong with adobo/at least it's hard to mess up, since there's sooo many variations of it. There's even one, where you fry it first then cook it with the sauce later on. Sooo the pork skin's nice and crispy
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. 😋
Hi everyone, I cooked this recently and it was delicious. I added some chillies for a bit of spice but it would have been very tasty regardless. The pork ends up so soft and tender and it's so easy.
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).
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!
@@kakarot9800 origin? Jusko wala na un. Lhat nang bahay may sariling recipe. Lhat nang province meron din sariling recipe. Pati ibang bansa gumaya narin at gumawa din recipe nila pero ang importante ang bawang, soy sauce, paminta, bay leaves at suka.
Very nice.. every region and every family in the Philippines has their own version and ingredients. Nothing wrong with all of them everyone's recipe is delicious
Had an ex boyfriend who grew up in the Phillipines and he made it using chicken legs. I absolutly love this dish, it really woke up my bland Aussie tastebuds. Have been dying to make it ever since we broke up. Thanks for the recipe👍
Great recipe and am enjoying the love Filipino cuisine is getting! Thank you for being a part of bringing it to the masses. But, I will say, hands or fork and spoon. You can keep those in the drawer for filipino food.
Thanks so much I watch your videos. I'm from the Caribbean. I don't eat beef because of religious reasons but I love your cooking much respect. I learn alot. Respect from Trindiad and Tobago 🇹🇹
Love this recipe. Simple and with. I cook mine with chopped round onion and a couple Thai (or Birds Eye) chili and whole garlic cloves instead of chopped. I don’t use peppercorns. My son hates eating around them so I just use ground pepper.
I made this last night and my partner said it was restaurant quality and she would pay up to $40 AUD for it and be satisfied. Thanks Andy, was very easy to make as well!
this recipe is spot on! skin on vs skin off is personal preference, my tita made the best pork adobo which was very similar to this recipe. she cut the skin off too, but left just enough fat, because the fat renders in the sauce and too much makes it sickly if there's too much, especially when eaten a day or so after cooking
I watched Chef James Makinson's review of Uncle Roger reviewing your adobo video. I'm a Filipino-American chef based out of the San Francisco Bay Area, and your pork adobo looks good enough to please my Grandfather (if he was still alive). The difference between his recipe and yours is no sugar, no scallions, and, interestingly enough, no marinade. I suspect this is because he came from a place where hunger was more prevalent than time to marinade (let alone refrigeration). As a chef, I understand the balance between acid, salt, and sweet. As a chef when I make adobo for my family it gets the marinade and in my grandfather's words in one of the very few written recipes we have "as much garlic as you can stand." Your version of pork adobo looks great and I give you one thumb up. When I can taste it I suspect I'll give you two thumbs up. Thank you for your version of my cultural, national, dish.
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! ♥️
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!
Look's delicious! Try cooking the version with coconut milk,unripe papaya and bell peppers. It's delicious too. Adobo's secret is the amount of vinegar and garlic you put in it. You can also add sugar in it. Other's put potato or pineapple just to balance the saltiness with a little bit of sweetness.
well done! something I've been doing lately is cooking adobo with coconut milk. just add a cup of it in the end and keep it cooking until it thickens and the oil comes out. it's a regional variation on adobo that we call "adobo sa gata". It's delicious. give it a try!
I’m Filipino and came from the Northern region of Philippines. Our version of adobo aside from the basic ingredients is that we put luya or ginger when we cook it. 😊 It adds a different flavor to our adobo.
Your garlic game is good. 🤣🤣🤣 Love how you seem nervous when you're now exposing the actual ingredients. 1:1/2 or 1:3/4 soy sauce to vinegar Ohhh 1.5 to 2 hours cooked adobo. Super Super Tender! Sometime's we'd cook this for 30 minutes because we're already hangry. Final product has awesome carmelization! Looks like its balanced between sweet and Tangy and full of Umami. 👍👍👍
@@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.
I don't usually add the vinegar to my marinade (but of course, it's just me), I also occasionally put boiled eggs (but I don't put any when family is around), I put potatoes too, helps thicken the sauce.
Adobo is one of the simplest things to cook 😅 I guess some use onion but us tagalogs we just use vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, Bayleaf, peppercorns. That’s it😂 you can put some siling labayo or chilli 🌶️ if you want additional kick into it.
This is our national dish here in the Philippines! The amount of respect on how you create this dish with simple ingredients is how we do it here. No other things in between! Cause simple is best and you nailed sir! ☺ Thank you!
I think Andy is the best Chief The best UA-camr On the platform & may be the world He is warm & sensitive You feel like your mom is cooking when you watch him cook....bless you dear👍
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 =)
Looks good. Perfectly authentic and similar to my moms. We don’t use chop sticks though. I mean, we always kept chopsticks, but mostly due to the popularity of East Asian food in the US. With that being said, I eat my Filipino food and even my spaghetti with chop sticks all the time.
Haha based on those ingredients i also approved of your adobo Andy- a Filipina grandma here😊 though i dont normally add sugar unless i put in too much soy sauce because as you must know by now we dont really measure our ingredients, i have also tried adding a small onion which gives a little sweetness to the sauce. Love your videos❤
Thank you sir for putting much respect in our favourite dish! You can also add some chopped chilis while it cooks and as garnish if you want some spice on it. In my typical adobo, I add in lots of garlic and onions. In my mom's recipe, she adds in pineapple and its juice to boost that sweet tangy flavour, also it makes the sauce look "glazed". In some, they add a little bit of potato. But no Parsley. Don't put parsley 😄
It is better to use dried bayleafs, it gives better flavorings and aroma. You gonna love that. For your next adobo cooking try to add oyster sauce instead of black soy.
Adobo is probably one of the few Filipino dishes that could be prepared according to your liking. As long as it is somewhat on the lines of savory, a hint of sweetness, and bit of sourness. NEVER spicy like the ones that a English chef prepared on a day show that Uncle Roger also prepared. I mean, they added chilies even when Adobo never needed chilies in the first place.
Filipino here. I add chilies to my adobo. Back in college, I also used to have "adobo diablo" and "adobo diablo sa gata" in an eatery near my University.
Hey it all depends on the region. "Some like it hot" as the film title goes. In Manila and as north as Sagada I have never seen chilli in Adobe. In Mindanao I see it a lot more. But, I won't generalise. The Philippines is a beautiful nation of 7641 islands, 120 languages, 110 million people and a united nation with regional pride
I'm a Filipino and i would give him 10/10 he cooked the pork adobo with perfection. Looks scrumptious! and yes garnished onion leaves is not really necessary👍🏼
Would love to see you make Peking duck. It’s hard to do at home but I’ve have various of levels success! Gotta do skin with steam pancakes. Meat with lettuce wraps and deep fried bones stir fried with cumin!
Before serving taking it off from the dire, remove the sauce. Add a prepared brown garlic oil, to enhance the garlic flavor and saute for around 2 more minutes. Put back the sauce. Add the brown garlic and turn off the fire. Leave it covered. Then serve with rice. And tomatoes on the side or pickled green mangoes. Yummy Andy. Suggestions only. Love your cooking...
Ohh Uncle Roger and the big Babe collab❤ Your 焼きうどん(Yaki udon), which is pretty much something mum would cook with leftover vegetables for Saturday lunch and not restaurant food, was spot on except for the bougie organic noodles. So I wouldn’t be surprised if you cooked other Asian food like you lived there for years.
the way we usually like it is when the pork has rendered the fats and the sauce is a bit thick. The pork skin makes the sauce thick and yummy. There is spiced vinegar usually available in Filipino groceries and it is a better vinegar to use when making the adobo =) but hey, you did a great job! i don't think Pinoy would recognize that you cooked it in a different way. the method you used is how you make pork humba, a dish more popular in the visayas and mindanao islands, but it is sweet, since instead of adding just 2 teaspoon of sugar you put in at least 5 tbsp of sugar and you use lemon-lime(sprite) soda instead of water. simmer it until the sauce is almost gone, just be careful not to burn the bottom =) and there you go, a variation of adobo from the southern philippines

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 🤤
its not close to adobo o.o cinnamon sticks, star anise, coriander seed and cardamom, its called mema. . .mema i comment lang
I have to try this
Filipino here. Amazing recipe. My grandma has a different take on the recipe, but yours is close to her's. The only difference is my grandma likes to add lots of red onions just before she serves it.
Red onions!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Bet your grandma is richh
adobo has so many variants, it is a joke. You can add chocolate chips or tomato paste and it will still be Adobo by some Filipino who wants to be original.
@@eduardochavacano no it isnt, bad analogy, do better
Red onions??? At this economy??
Adobo can be cooked in so many ways, just the main ingredients then add the twist to your liking. That way you can enjoy it. Adobo have so many version here in the Philippines, and the one with potatoes is the best for me.
Hi Andy, I'm an avid here, thank you so much for featuring our native dish on your channel. I love adobo and would want to try cooking it the way you do. It looks good and delicious. 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. Just sharing from the Philippines Mabuhay!!!🇵🇭😍😍❤️❤️❤️😀
From a Filipino Aussie, perfectly made! Well done! ❤🇵🇭👍💯🥇🏆
Thank you!
@@andy_cooks the way i cook adobo..you nailed it chef
Filipinos eat using bare hand….not Chopsticks!😎
Looks good! As a former expat in Manila, hands down one of my favourite Filipino dish. It’s amazing how the recipe changes region by region - even between households.
Hi Andy, since am Filipino-American in NYC but belong to the Pampango region in the Philippines, basically Central Luzon, am versed in the prep of adobo, be it pork or a combination of pork and chicken.
If not quite in a hurry, you can keep the marinade in the fridge overnight. Don't use too much pork fat in my cooking.
But yours look good!
My mum makes this with boiled eggs. She puts it in like the last 5 minutes of the simmering. So yummy!!!
As a Filipino, this is a 2 thumbs up. Adding potatoes in there balances things a bit. But overall, this is great. I just love seeing foreign chefs cook Filipino foods. You just earned yourself a subscriber. 🙂
Potatoes? 🤦♂️
@@yabadoo7335 usually diff. parts of the Philippines add something in there, that's the basic Authentic recipe (this video). so adding Potatoes kind of like saying, I like my coffee with sugar sometimes, sometimes I like honey or sometimes I like it just black.. same goes with adobo, some like it with potatoes (which I sometimes do), sometimes people put banana (those big ones not the small sweet ones), sometimes pork and chicken adobo mix. so for Adobo all I can say is put anything if you think you like it just stick with the Basic ingredients. Soy sauce, Osyster sauce, Vinegar, Sugar, w/o Bayleaf.
@@_K4OS nakakabawas ng lasa ang patatas
@@yabadoo7335 There is no set recipe for Adobo in the Philippines. That's why as Uncle Roger said it's hard to mess it up. Yes, that's why I said potatoes balances the dish a bit, if the taste is a bit too salty or sour. To some extent, others put Hard boiled egg in there.
@@_K4OS You're totally correct with that bro. Not only potatoes but a lot of variations that I tried. I just preferred potatoes especially on the Chicken Adobo. 🙂
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.
I'm a Filipino and my grandmother adds potatoes to the dish and it's so good when it's softened by the adobo
I'm a filipino, adobo become part of our culture. But it's sad to say that adobo is originally from spanish that invaded us a century years ago
PS. Sorry for my bad english 😂
Can add cassavas as well
Some ancestors add Sprite too.......
Mr T-Rex
Except, his ancestors are probably not Filipino, they wont know what to tell him… so, yeah, he has to measure.. LOL..
Made Adobo for my filipina grandma some years ago (I'm german-filipino). Wasnt quite like hers but she was very proud and was still very good. Certainly need to to it again!
Nice! It's hard to beat a Filipino grandma's recipe.
I’m Filipino and I love the way you make the adobo. It’s perfect!
Andy… I TRULY appreciate the fact that you stuck to “Uncles Roger’s” version of this recipe! Absolute respect for his rendition of the recipe!!! I’m drooling!!!
Came for the recipe, stayed for the stache.
Same
😂
Lol 🤣 classic 😉
He looks like a Pinkerton detective
Haha thanks legend!
This is exactly how my mom makes adobo when we were still in school. Yes including the spring onions on top! 🫣 She would marinate the night before and cook it while we were prepping. By the time the school bus arrives, our lunch box is ready with her glorious adobo. 😊 This dish really transports you back home. Thank you Chef! 💕
You did a great job! You can't really go wrong with adobo/at least it's hard to mess up, since there's sooo many variations of it. There's even one, where you fry it first then cook it with the sauce later on. Sooo the pork skin's nice and crispy
In our house we have method of cooking Adobo called Adobong Tamad (Lazy Adobo). We toss all ingredients on pot then just let it finish cooking itself.
Same thats how I cook my adobo HAHAHA
haha same
Same! We cook a big pot with alot of sauce to pour onto our rice
😂😂😂😂😂me too. Toss everything and waiting for it to be cook!!! Viola easiest and fastest adobo ever
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. 😋
One of my favorite adobo videos! There’s no one right way to make adobo as long as the essence is there and you def hit the essence.
Getting a positive review from Uncle Roger is way better than a Micheline Star.
Haha
U rodger is a fake
Uncle Roger positive reviews basically worth nth mate
@@andy_cooks need to put some Ginger with the Garlic.. Traditional way here in the Province Philippines
@@andy_cooks minced Ginger..
Hi everyone, I cooked this recently and it was delicious. I added some chillies for a bit of spice but it would have been very tasty regardless. The pork ends up so soft and tender and it's so easy.
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).
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!

The best one I've seen so far. The amount of garlic is on point. Using coconut vinegar yes. Awesome!!!
Thank you for appreciating Filipinos Pork Adobo!❤❤❤ same recipe that I am using for my adobo. That amount of garlic and bay leaves! Love it!
No bay leaves and with onion for me. Pang humba lang ang bay leaf
@@HunterPh it helps or gives off a good aroma.
It's optional, but you can add pineapple too, instead of sugar, to add sweet and savor flavor.
I love this presenting style, and with such a nice demeanour too - would love to see a tv commissioned travel cooking show with this guy
Great version of our Filipino Adobo.
You nailed it from the marinating process 'til it is well cooked and ready to serve.
Just awesome...

I'm so glad I started watching your videos, I'm gonna try and make some, if not most of the dishes you've taught us. My wife and I love your videos.
Had an ex boyfriend who grew up in the Phillipines and he made it using chicken legs. I absolutly love this dish, it really woke up my bland Aussie tastebuds. Have been dying to make it ever since we broke up. Thanks for the recipe👍
Yow thats my favorite food in the entire planet.
Sorry for the break up...but there are tons of filipino meals I'm sure your taste buds are dying to taste❤
What happened? :)
Great recipe and am enjoying the love Filipino cuisine is getting! Thank you for being a part of bringing it to the masses. But, I will say, hands or fork and spoon. You can keep those in the drawer for filipino food.
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.
Yum - makes sense to marinade first then brown for saturated flavor. Also love your humble but worldly approach to food/life! Mahalo!
Thank you
Thanks so much I watch your videos. I'm from the Caribbean. I don't eat beef because of religious reasons but I love your cooking much respect. I learn alot. Respect from Trindiad and Tobago 🇹🇹
This is like my 96yo Filipina mom taught me. Kept it simple and that's so great 👍
You are so respectful to the culture and the ingredients. Thank you!
The way mom cooks it...with the exception of the garnish...my fave comfort food since childhood...thank you chef...
Andy is the OG. Really enjoy your videos bro! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Love this recipe. Simple and with. I cook mine with chopped round onion and a couple Thai (or Birds Eye) chili and whole garlic cloves instead of chopped. I don’t use peppercorns. My son hates eating around them so I just use ground pepper.
I made this last night and my partner said it was restaurant quality and she would pay up to $40 AUD for it and be satisfied.
Thanks Andy, was very easy to make as well!
Fantastic video on this one Chef! I can't wait to try this one myself.
It's a great dish!
this recipe is spot on! skin on vs skin off is personal preference, my tita made the best pork adobo which was very similar to this recipe. she cut the skin off too, but left just enough fat, because the fat renders in the sauce and too much makes it sickly if there's too much, especially when eaten a day or so after cooking
I would fry up and crisp the skin then add it back to braise.
I watched Chef James Makinson's review of Uncle Roger reviewing your adobo video. I'm a Filipino-American chef based out of the San Francisco Bay Area, and your pork adobo looks good enough to please my Grandfather (if he was still alive). The difference between his recipe and yours is no sugar, no scallions, and, interestingly enough, no marinade. I suspect this is because he came from a place where hunger was more prevalent than time to marinade (let alone refrigeration). As a chef, I understand the balance between acid, salt, and sweet. As a chef when I make adobo for my family it gets the marinade and in my grandfather's words in one of the very few written recipes we have "as much garlic as you can stand." Your version of pork adobo looks great and I give you one thumb up. When I can taste it I suspect I'll give you two thumbs up. Thank you for your version of my cultural, national, dish.
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! ♥️
Josh Weissman and Andy are the only chefs I’ve seen that cooked adobo with 100% precision. Gotta respect that. ❤️
Weissman is unbearable though.
@@jordanbabcock9349 Amen
If only Weissman returned to his previous calmer persona and stopped cooking sanwiches and pizzas for the 19873th time
@@IslamBenfifi If only he understood the reason why people like fast food. Instead he insults his viewers for enjoying it.
How about Travis Kraft hahaha
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!
you made every Filipinos happy on this video ❤
Your videos inspire me to keep cooking! You seem so patient and friendly, thanks for always sharing!!
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.
I’m Filipino and this is the best adobo I’ve seen. I’m a fan, sir!
One of the best for sure! 🍻♥️
For me it is not adobo if the soy suace used is not silver swan
@@wadaya4844 my mom uses Quality. Its a cheap ass brand you can buy at any market 😂
@@patrickdelacruz6758 yup cheap ass brand pero may ibang lasa pag silver swan. Anyway thats just my opinion.
Chopsticks?? HAAIYAAAA
Adobo is awesome and easy. Id love to see your take on another filipino classic. Bicol Express. Thanks bro!
Fantastic! So proud of you cooking our local dish
Look's delicious! Try cooking the version with coconut milk,unripe papaya and bell peppers. It's delicious too. Adobo's secret is the amount of vinegar and garlic you put in it. You can also add sugar in it. Other's put potato or pineapple just to balance the saltiness with a little bit of sweetness.
What kind of adobo is that?
@@spc1982 it's called "adobo sa gata"
Like uncle Roger said Filipino adobo is hard to mess up and you nailed it look delicious 🤤
well done! something I've been doing lately is cooking adobo with coconut milk. just add a cup of it in the end and keep it cooking until it thickens and the oil comes out. it's a regional variation on adobo that we call "adobo sa gata". It's delicious. give it a try!
I love that you like to cook adobo all the time now. Thanks, Chef Andy. 🇵🇭
Our family also got a similar recipe, but we tend to make it more like a soup, as in the adobo having more sauce. Chicken adobo is also a classic.
Adobaw. ♥️♥️♥️
I’m Filipino and came from the Northern region of Philippines. Our version of adobo aside from the basic ingredients is that we put luya or ginger when we cook it. 😊 It adds a different flavor to our adobo.
Your garlic game is good. 🤣🤣🤣 Love how you seem nervous when you're now exposing the actual ingredients. 1:1/2 or 1:3/4 soy sauce to vinegar Ohhh 1.5 to 2 hours cooked adobo. Super Super Tender! Sometime's we'd cook this for 30 minutes because we're already hangry. Final product has awesome carmelization! Looks like its balanced between sweet and Tangy and full of Umami. 👍👍👍
I’ve always wanted to make some adobo and wow, I actually have all ingredients ready to go lol! Thank you for the simple video
You can boil the pork first then sauté the garlic and then add the other ingredients. Simple
@@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.
@@jojocastillo2923 im did not say that he is wrong. Most we have our way of cooking adobo. The hell i care about spanish or where adobo came from.
I don't usually add the vinegar to my marinade (but of course, it's just me), I also occasionally put boiled eggs (but I don't put any when family is around), I put potatoes too, helps thicken the sauce.
Adobo is one of the simplest things to cook 😅 I guess some use onion but us tagalogs we just use vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, Bayleaf, peppercorns. That’s it😂 you can put some siling labayo or chilli 🌶️ if you want additional kick into it.
YEah, im supposed to say smthn abt the vinegar -- but never mind haha
Us tagalogs? Hoy!
Love love love pork adobo. Can't wait to try this recipe out.

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 =)
Looks good. Perfectly authentic and similar to my moms. We don’t use chop sticks though. I mean, we always kept chopsticks, but mostly due to the popularity of East Asian food in the US. With that being said, I eat my Filipino food and even my spaghetti with chop sticks all the time.
filipinos use fork and spoon, one in each hand to eat. only foreigner use chopstick...lol
@@preciousplasticphI beg to differ. We use kamay.
@@preciousplasticph Real Filipinos use their hands only. :)
Haha based on those ingredients i also approved of your adobo Andy- a Filipina grandma here😊 though i dont normally add sugar unless i put in too much soy sauce because as you must know by now we dont really measure our ingredients, i have also tried adding a small onion which gives a little sweetness to the sauce.
Love your videos❤
Thank you sir for putting much respect in our favourite dish!
You can also add some chopped chilis while it cooks and as garnish if you want some spice on it.
In my typical adobo, I add in lots of garlic and onions.
In my mom's recipe, she adds in pineapple and its juice to boost that sweet tangy flavour, also it makes the sauce look "glazed". In some, they add a little bit of potato.
But no Parsley. Don't put parsley 😄
Ahh, yes the superior Adobo. Thank you for cooking it the way you envision it.
It is better to use dried bayleafs, it gives better flavorings and aroma. You gonna love that. For your next adobo cooking try to add oyster sauce instead of black soy.
Adobo is probably one of the few Filipino dishes that could be prepared according to your liking. As long as it is somewhat on the lines of savory, a hint of sweetness, and bit of sourness. NEVER spicy like the ones that a English chef prepared on a day show that Uncle Roger also prepared. I mean, they added chilies even when Adobo never needed chilies in the first place.
spicy adobo is good
Filipino here. I add chilies to my adobo. Back in college, I also used to have "adobo diablo" and "adobo diablo sa gata" in an eatery near my University.
I crave for spicy adobo every now and then, its so good. Though the spicyness i look for is that of from peppers .
Spicy adobo is a thing wdym?
Hey it all depends on the region. "Some like it hot" as the film title goes. In Manila and as north as Sagada I have never seen chilli in Adobe. In Mindanao I see it a lot more. But, I won't generalise. The Philippines is a beautiful nation of 7641 islands, 120 languages, 110 million people and a united nation with regional pride
I discovered that apple cider vinegar works well with pork adobo, too - pork and apples go well together so it just makes sense!
Amazing chef! Thank you for cooking our native dish. Done liking and subscribing!
I'm a Filipino and i would give him 10/10 he cooked the pork adobo with perfection. Looks scrumptious! and yes garnished onion leaves is not really necessary👍🏼
Would love to see you make Peking duck. It’s hard to do at home but I’ve have various of levels success! Gotta do skin with steam pancakes. Meat with lettuce wraps and deep fried bones stir fried with cumin!
Before serving taking it off from the dire, remove the sauce. Add a prepared brown garlic oil, to enhance the garlic flavor and saute for around 2 more minutes. Put back the sauce. Add the brown garlic and turn off the fire. Leave it covered. Then serve with rice. And tomatoes on the side or pickled green mangoes. Yummy Andy. Suggestions only. Love your cooking...
Chef Andy. We Filipinos don't eat with chopsticks. We usually eat with fork and spoon or with our bare hands 😊 but ur adobo is spot on 😁
Ohh Uncle Roger and the big Babe collab❤
Your 焼きうどん(Yaki udon), which is pretty much something mum would cook with leftover vegetables for Saturday lunch and not restaurant food, was spot on except for the bougie organic noodles. So I wouldn’t be surprised if you cooked other Asian food like you lived there for years.
the way we usually like it is when the pork has rendered the fats and the sauce is a bit thick. The pork skin makes the sauce thick and yummy. There is spiced vinegar usually available in Filipino groceries and it is a better vinegar to use when making the adobo =) but hey, you did a great job! i don't think Pinoy would recognize that you cooked it in a different way. the method you used is how you make pork humba, a dish more popular in the visayas and mindanao islands, but it is sweet, since instead of adding just 2 teaspoon of sugar you put in at least 5 tbsp of sugar and you use lemon-lime(sprite) soda instead of water. simmer it until the sauce is almost gone, just be careful not to burn the bottom =) and there you go, a variation of adobo from the southern philippines
As a Filipina Aussie… You’re invited to the Fiesta. 🎉 Well done.
