Nothing much better than having more free time at home. We can do plenty of things than we used to do because of doing a living outside For today's lunch, I cooked chicken "adobo". For our foreign readers, adobo is a Filipino method of cooking having meat as main ingredients cook in soy sauce, vinegar and other spices and condiments. I would say I cooked the dish just right but my fried chicken during the next round of my cooking was a total mess.

Pork is delicious too. My brother-in-law drops by at the house and handed me a pack of whole chicken. It's good to have a sponsor this time around

I can't explain that too. Although they said it taste good, but for me it will take more hours to feel the taste of the food that I cooked.

It's been a long time since we had chicken adobo and it was just the drumsticks. We used to buy a whole chicken and had it chopped but usually we couldn't finish all so now we just cook 6 drumsticks for the adobo. Now wastage.

@ZedSmart which was the failure, the adobo or the fried wings?

6 slices are just right. You could still store the remaining in the fridge. It was a bit crazy because I separate the drumsticks and the wings for fried chicken but it was a failure though it can be still eaten.

I’ve had chicken adobo in Puerto Rico and loved it! Yours looks delicious. Fried chicken can be tricky.

That looks yummy. I made that recently but I didn't like how it turned out. I should've used wings instead.

You are right, sometimes we do not achieve the consistency we we would like to achieve. The fried chicken was totally a disaster.

@ZedSmart I wish I could do it. But I just had a side dish: shredded tomatoes with century eggs.

That's good too especially if you stuffed it with plenty of spices.
