Most of the recipes that I will post in my blog came from my mother.. I remember calling her asking how she always cook Adobong Pusit. And now I am sharing it with you.
Ingredients
=============
1/2 kilo Squid
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tbsp White Vinegar
2 tbsp Canola Oil (I choose this for healthy reason but you can use any oil)
1 medium size Onion
6 pcs Garlic Head
2 pcs Ripe Tomato
8 pcs Whole Black Pepper
2 pcs Laurel Leaves or Bay Leaves
3 stalks Coriander Leaves
Pinch of Fine Salt
Cooking Method
=============
1. Clean the squid. Remove the head and the hard cartilage from its body
2. This is optional, cut the Squid's body about 2cm in length
3. In a deep pan, put the chopped Garlic first. This will act as a bed for the Squid.
4. Now, put the Squid while spreading it evenly in the pan
5. Pour the Soy Sauce and Vinegar
6. Put the Laurel leaves and Whole Black Pepper
7. Simmer for about 7 to 10 minutes. Don't overcook the Squid!!
8. After simmering, separate the Squid and the black soup
9. Dice the Onion, Garlic and Tomatoes
10. In the same pan, pour the oil
11. Saute Garlic until lightly brown
12. Add the diced Onion and slowly sweat
13. Add the Tomato and saute until soft
14. Now add the Squid first. Fry for 2 minutes.
15. Finally, pour the black soup and add chopped Coriander Leaves
16. Simmer for another 2 minutes
17. Then its ready to eat.
Hope you enjoy my version of Adobong Pusit. Unlike the usual way of just simmering the Squid, my mother always saute it in Garlic, Onion and Tomato. This i believe added extra flavors.
