Adobo with Garlic Fried Rice
Submitted by: Luisa
2 pounds pork or chicken, cut into chunks
1 cup vinegar
1 head garlic, crushed
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon peppercorns
1 tablespoon oil
Garlic Fried Rice:
4 tablespoons Olive oil
1 head garlic, crushed finely
4 cups cooked rice,
Refrigerated overnight
Salt to taste
Adobo: Wash pork or chicken meat; place in a cooking pan, and mix in other ingredients. Cover the pan and bring mixture to the boil, using medium heat. Once boiling, stir mixture to separate meat pieces. Lower heat, cook until meat is tender, stirring mixture once or twice. When meat is tender and there is 'excess' liquid left, transfer meat to a container and allow excess liquid in the pan to 'evaporate' by turning up the heat. Once liquid is almost dried up, put back the meat in the pan and allow to 'fry' in its own fat, stirring lightly. Serve hot with garlic-fried rice and tomato slices.

Garlic Fried Rice: Place rice in a wide container and separate grains using your hands. In a non-stick frying pan, heat oil over medium-hot heat and fry garlic until brown. Add rice and mix thoroughly until rice is evenly cooked. Season with salt to taste. Serve hot.
