I was without my standby recipe (from an old newspaper clipping) and this was a very close substitute. The only thing I did differently was doubled the liquids (for more sauce) and threw in a can of quail eggs at the end. Thanks for this recipe!!

I imagine this was because a small bit of salted meat could go a long way with a big bowl of white rice when having to feed a large family. While I have never made thit kho (yeah, I know) I have made adobo a million times. The recipe I usually work from came from a newspaper clipping many years ago and is pasted into a notebook at my apartment. However, since I do most of my cooking at Joel’s place, I didn’t have that to refer to. While I know the basic ingredients, I couldn’t remember the proportions so I went with this recipe from Rasa Malaysia.

I first came to the Philippines (being Fil-Am) a couple years ago and have been amazed at how many different versions of adobo people here cook. And the vehemence at which way is the "correct way"! I LOVE your addition of pork belly. I read this and smacked myself on the head wondering why I had never used pork belly, my favorite part of the pig! Thanks! Great piece on adobo!

I never really learned to cook adobo when I was still in Manila, but since I left & lived in Germany, I just had to learn it as it is one of my favourite dishes. I have also tried many version of it. I just wanted to add that I have tried doing my Adobo with BALSAMICO Vinegar. I once wanted to cook Adobo & i ran out of normal vinegar, so I got hold of Balsamic vinegar & it tasted quite good , too! Just don´t put too much as the vinegar is strong & dark. Thanks for letting me share this info. nice website, very informative. I am also Pinoy & I love Adobo!

So happy to hear you liked the recipe! I also went through a lot of tweaking before getting to this recipe :) In the beginning I was hesitant to add water even though many suggested it...now I know why! Hi Linda!
