1/2kg Beef, sliced thinly
3pcs Lemoncito/Calamansi
Soy sauce
Margarine/butter
Onions
Flour
Evaporated milk
Knorr Beef Broth Cube
Lemon grass

lemon grass

Procedure:

1. Marinate beef with lemoncito/Calamansi and soy sauce for 30minutes. Set aside.
2. Heat margarine in a pan and fry marinated beef until brown. Add onions.
3. Sprinkle flour and cook for 2minutes.
4. Add milk and put Knorr Beef Broth Cube. Simmer for 2minutes.
5. Chop the lemon grass into very tiny details and sprinkle it to the beef while in the pan with moderate heat.

Update: August 11, 2011

Additional Cooking Tips:

1.) For best results, marinate up to 4 hours. This will significantly improve the taste of the beef because the marinating ingredients would penetrate to the beef meat very well.For even better results, you can marinate overnight by placing it on your refrigerator. I have observed this to a great factor in significantly improving the quality of the results.

2.) Soy sauce is my personal choice since I am more adopted to it when cooking. But if you have Worcestershire sauce you can as well use it when marinating beef.

3.) You can as well try frying the marinated beef with canola oil and the results would taste great and less fatty in my experience.

Enjoy your day! Thank you for your time.

Fried Chicken Wings Recipes

Fried chicken wings

Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1/2 kilo chicken wings
3cups oil for frying (see cooking oil tips below)
McCormick Korean BBQ Seasoning mix
3/4 water
Cornstarch

Instruction:
1. Pour flour into plastic bag
2. Moisten chicken wings with water
3. Shake moistened chicken in the plastic bag until evenly coated.
4. Deep fry until golden brown
5. Combine McCormick Korean BBQ seasoning mix, water and cornstarch in your pan.
6. Boil it stir continuously until thick.
7. Coat fried chicken into glaze.

Tips for quality cooking and great tasting fried chicken:

1.) One of the best cooking oil for fried chicken is Canola oil. If you are planning for great tasting and less fatty results, this cooking oil is the solution. I do not heard much about Canola oil here in Philippines, but I can buy it in some big stores and malls like in SM and Ayala cebu groceries.

2.) You should heat the oil as much as possible before putting the chicken.

3.) For chicken meat, select younger chickens as they have much tender meat. Older chicken meat is hard to eat based on my experience.

4.) If you would like your chicken wings to have that brown color, you should use cast iron skillet. This is how it looks like:

Cast iron skillet for fried chicken

Finally after cooking the results would be like this:

Eggplant
Soy sauce
Vinegar
Cooking oil
Salt
Ajinomoto
Pork
Garlic
Onion

Instructions:
1. Fry the pork when it's brown set aside.
2. Cut the eggplant into small pieces.

7. After that when the eggplant turn’s brown it means it is done. So it is time to put some taste add salt and ajinomoto.
8. Finally turn off the fire and prepare it for your family.

Important note when cooking eggplant recipes: I observed there are a lot of people who are allergic to eggplant. You can some details here:

http://www.livestrong.com/article/328582-eggplant-inflammation/

Actually you should be consulting your doctor before you include some eggplant in your diet.

The following are the important tips that can increase the quality of your eggplant recipe with ground pork:

1.) Quality of ground pork is important. Get it from reputable meat stores like Monterey. This will minimize the chances of buying a not-so-fresh meat which of course can affect the quality of your cooking.

2.) Quality of eggplant is very important. I suggest buying in your local store instead in malls because its cheaper and fresh. Do not be confused with eggplants coming from different countries. They are just the same. However I noticed a difference in the physical appearance of the eggplant grown in the Philippines and abroad. This is how the eggplant in the Philippines would look like(longer):

eggplant grown in Philippines









This is an eggplant grown in US and Europe:

eggplant grown in US







3) Wash the eggplant thoroughly because it can contain some pesticides or insecticides which are very harmful when included in your foods. Also beware of eating vegetables raw because sometimes you really need to be sure that its bacteria-free (which can be solved by cooking).



I hope you enjoy it. Thank you so much for your time.

About this special recipe:

I just observed that this recipe is very popular in birthday celebration among Filipinos. This is the most traditional way of celebrating birthdays and it should have a chicken soup in its dinner table.

To those that are not familiar with the Filipino culture. Every time someone celebrates his or her birthday, the family members will cook one chicken for the celebrant and put some blood from the chicken to the forehead of the birthday celebrant. The purpose of doing this is to protect the birthday celebrant from any evil spirits that will ruin his/her future. It is some sort of ritual as you might expect. Actually its not that weird, no long prayers, etc. Just simply putting a sign of cross in the forehead of the celebrant using chicken blood. That's it.

Filipino birthday














For best tasting results, I recommend buying a native chicken (those that are obtained in the wild or cultured in the wild/forestal area) as they have less fats, their meat taste good and their soup taste really fresh.

fried chicken results

Hope I can help you. Good luck everyday. Thank you.

Update (August 4, 2011): Fried chicken is sometimes oily, I suggest for higher quality cooking you will not be reusing the cooking oil if its already used. For raw drumstick chicken select for brands known for its quality meat such as Magnolia chicken and Monterey. One of the issues with fried chicken is that if its not fully cooked there is still blood on the bones section of your drumstick. The primary cause of this problem is that either the oil is not too deep or you are not cooking it within the optimal minutes.

Cooking deep fry is very important, make sure that oil is deep and the chicken meat is completely submerged, such as shown in the screenshot below. Do not also forget to cook around 15 to 20 minutes per side of the drumstick for optimal cooking at medium heat.

Fried chicken is one of my most favorite food because it is rich in following vitamins and minerals:

1.) Proteins - chicken meat is one of the best sources of proteins.
2.) Potassium and sodium - this is an important body electrolyte
3.) Phosphorous

Although the following are the downside of fried chicken meal:

1.) Some fat and cholesterol

If you are strict in losing fats, then you might avoid some rich in fats like fried chicken and other meal.

delicious monggos with malunggay

Thank you!

Update: August 4, 2011 - Actually if you are non-Filipino you will find it hard to buy or to get to know what is "malunggay, I often received a lot of questions about this from other readers. In English, "malunggay" is also known as "moringa". Its not actually common of course in very cold countries. Moringa growns in tropical and sub-tropical climates.

Moringa is rich with the folliwng vitamins and minerals:

1.) Rich in anti-oxidants.
2.) Vitamin C
3.) Magnesium
4.) Calcium.
5.) Phosphorus
6.) Vitamin A

You can read more about the nutritional contents of moringa here: http://allthingsmoringa.com/

Monggo in english is also known as "Mung bean". You can buy these in stores and of course cooking can take a lot of time to soften it. I suggest that before you can go very hungry you will need to soften this mung bean in advance in boiling water so that you won't have to wait for long minutes.

If you are cooking it immediately without having it to soften much, then you will have a hard time eating the mung bean. Mung bean is rich with the following vitamins and minerals:

1.) Phosphorous
2.) Magnesium
3.) Calcium
4.) Vitamin C
5.) Vitamin K

Mung bean can be used with different types of soup. Here in Philippines, it is much common to mix mung beans with chicken soup, fish as well as pork.

Mung bean is also very cheap for around 30 pesos you can cook it for around 3 to 5 times for a medium sized family.
