what do you put in your adobo?

hello there! my adobo is very simple...i just like it with lots of garlic! i boil it first with soysauce, vinegar, pepper, salt to taste and sometimes i still use msg and garlic. then after boiling i fried some garlic and fry a little the meats and then put its sauce...boil until tender. sometimes i put laurel leaves sometimes not.

This is the secret ingredient my husband's cousin place in his adobo -- oyster sauce. Aside from the usual ingredients like vinegar, soy sauce and spices, teh oyster sauce thickens the sauce and makes it yummier.

I put a little sugar for my adobo only in the absence of pineapple juice. I also make sure that my adobo will have good amount of garlic and just a little amount of Laurel. I cook my adobo in low-heat or low-fire without frequently stirring the meat. I have made a lot of Adobo recipe variations. One of the best I have so far made is the recipe with which I added peeled chopped tomatoes rather than using vinegar.

sometimes i put pineapple chunks in it. It's good you should try it. I also put a pinch or sugar to balance the taste so it won't be too salty. I also love putting (saba)bananas and sweet potatoes, a generous amount of garlic and pepper... oh my now i'm hungry.

My mom always put sugar in her adobo. I think it has something to do about vinegar and soy sauce, I am not really sure. Her adobo is closed to being dry because she want the sauce to be thick unlike some adobo where there are too much sauce in it.

hello there! I also add sugar when its nearly done but before I cook my adobo I marinate first the meat with soy sauce, garlic, pepper, ginger (for chicken)and bay leaves.

I love adobo. Like yourself, I also put sugar, even brown sugar on my adobo. I caramelized the sugar with the meat. It tastes really good. I love it.

i put more vinegar than soy sauce. i also put a little bit sugar. that's all, its delicious even it has not so many herbs and spices or ingredients.

i love adobo... i've tried that one already years ago... i also put sugar on it... its not weird! heheh... i started by boilinng meat with soysauce and vinegar, and little salt... mix with spices. i dont put oil in cooking adobo... when its almost cook, i put sugar!!!!!!!!!!!!
