Tasty RIBS!

Caldereta

I've had enough of the pork fats that we usually buy and I've been missing those pork soup bones that we used to buy in the Philippines. Bones are yummier for soups but we haven't seen any soup bones that have enough meat as well so for now we settled on the spareribs.

I cooked Caldereta (Filipino Beef Stew) with a little tweak in the recipe. I learned from my husband's sister in law to use worcestershire and tomato paste. I used to cook it with liver spread and tomato sauce or the easy way by using (Mama Sita's) caldereta mix. This time around I added dried tomatoes, a little peanut butter and some olives. I would have loved to add a little more heat to it but my little girl loves eating rice with the sauce.

Sweet and Sour

And for our lunch today, I tried the Sweet and Sour pork ribs, my usual favorite when we eat Chinese. It was easy, I just boiled the pork with crushed pineapple, soy sauce, brown sugar and oyster sauce then cooked until tender. That's it, now I don't have to eat out just for that :D
