Filipino Pork Adobo is a meat dish that is simmered until fork-tender in spices and flavors that’s sweet, sour, salty. One of the most popular dishes of the Philippines and also one of the easiest to make.
Place all the ingredients in a big bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to marinate.
Transfer to a pot with a tight fitting lid and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Skim off scum that floats to the top as it begins to boil. Reduce heat to medium (or medium low) and cook for 40-50 minutes or until meat is tender and the sauce thickens.
Serve with rice.
Notes
***Use 2 cups water plus 1 Tablespoon ( or two ) of sugar in place of Sprite.*** Adobo tastes better the next day so don’t eat it all at once.*** I save the fat that has rendered while cooking and use it for fried rice.
