GREG'S PORK ASADO



Greg's Pork Asado image

This is a Filipino recipe. A friend of ours made it for us when he came to visit. We found the recipe in either the Seattle P-I or Journal American newspaper about 15 years ago, which we've since lost, but my husband remembered it and over time we've adapted it to fit our tastes.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup water
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 bay leaf
2 lbs boneless pork steaks

Cook for 10-15 minutes and flip the pork, cooking an additional 10 -15 minutes until done which will depend on the thickness of the pork.
  • Serve the pork over a bed of rice, removing the bay leaf, drizzling the sauce over it and seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

WEST TEXAS ASADO



West Texas Asado image

On a trip this summer to Odessa (west Texas) I ate at a Mexican restaurant with friends and one of them said he would order for me. What I got was Asado with two fried eggs (sunny side up) on top of it. Now this was HOT & SPICY but tasted out of this world. I was glad to have the runny yolks just to lay my tongue in ever now and then. It was served wit good rice and beans and flour tortillas. I've tried 3 or 4 recipes trying to dupe that Asado and finally this recipe is just about spot on. A friend found it on the net and sent it to me, it's not my original recipe but I have made it just a few days ago! I did add some of the pepper seeds to get that heat but that's up to you. If you like authentic and HOT and Spicy, this is the recipe for you.....enjoy and don't forget the two fried eggs on top.

ASADO DE PUERCO (MEXICAN PORK STEW)



Asado de Puerco (Mexican Pork Stew) image

An authentic Mexican pork stew made with dried chiles, no chili powder here! The guajillo chiles add a very smoky flavor while the ancho chiles add a touch of smoky sweetness. To add another level of flavor, we always top our puerco asado with sliced onions marinated in fresh lemon juice.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
½ cup water
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
4 dried guajillo chile peppers
4 dried ancho chile peppers
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
10 whole black peppercorns
2 garlic cloves
½ inch stick Mexican cinnamon
½ teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon cumin seeds
2 bay leaves
2 whole cloves
1 tablespoon lard

Steps:

  • Combine pork cubes, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a Dutch oven. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring constantly, until water evaporates. Continue cooking until the pork browns in its rendered fat, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut tops off the dried chiles and remove seeds. Heat chiles in a large skillet over low heat until they start to soften. Do not toast. Place chiles in a bowl of hot water and soak for 20 minutes.
  • Remove pork and set aside. Do not wash, wipe out, or clean the Dutch oven.
  • Transfer chiles to a blender, reserving soaking water. Add cilantro, chicken bouillon, peppercorns, garlic, cinnamon stick, Mexican oregano, thyme, cumin seeds, bay leaves, and cloves. Pour in 1 cup soaking water and blend until smooth. Add 1 more cup soaking water, season with salt, and blend until completely smooth.
  • Melt lard in the Dutch oven. Carefully add blended chile mixture and scrape up all browned bits. Bring to a boil and add pork. Reduce heat and cover partially, leaving about 1 inch open. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and reaches the desired consistency, 15 to 20 minutes.

PORK ASADO



Pork Asado image

This recipe is a bit different from the Chinese variation. My Mother in Law taught me how to make this dish which was handed down from her Mother in Law and my husband requests it often. It's one of those comforting dishes that will become a staple.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs pork shoulder
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 tablespoons red chili powder (I prefer New Mexico)
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 knorr chicken bouillon cube
1 pinch ground cloves (tiny pinch)
2 cups water

Steps:

  • Cut the pork into 1/2 inch cubes removing any fat. Heat a large pot on medium high and fry the pork allowing it to fry in its own juices. After the meat is browned on all sides, turn the heat to medium low and cover stirring occasional until the meat is fork tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Then, add the flour to the pork and stir lightly browning the flour for 2 minutes. Finally, add the tomato sauce, all of the spices and water. Stir to combine and cook on medium heat just until the sauce thickens. Add more garlic salt to taste and chile powder if needed. Also, if sauce gets too thick, you can add another 1/4 cup water until the sauce has the consistency you like. It should resemble a runny gravy.
