Cooking One of my Father's Favorite Food Adobong Sitaw (String Beans)

---

Hello! How are you? So, for our lunch, I am going to cook Adobong Sitaw, one of my father's favorite foods. I like the taste of savory, a hint of sweet, and a healthy vegetable, too. One of my family members cooked this dish and fell in love with it, so the first time I tried it, I failed, but after I discovered the techniques. One adds a lot of meat to it, and the next adds just a little water. I always forgot this important step, but now I am used to it, so whenever I cook one, I always add water, little by little, so that I can balance the taste of the dish. Do you this dish? Have you tried it? Let me show you how I cook it.

Ingredients I Used:

---

Lets Cook:

In a pan, I pour 2 tablespoon of cooking oil.

---

When the oil was hot enough, I added the meat to the pan and cooked it until crispy on the sides.

---

When the meat is cooked, I will add aromatics like garlic, red onion, and ginger.

---

Next, I am going to add the string beans and sautee them for a minute to add more crispiness to the vegetables.

---

Mixing it to avoid burning.

---

Then, I am going to add half a teaspoon of ground pepper to add flavor to the beans.

---

After that, I added 2 tablespoon of soy sauce and mixed it for a minute to make the string bean absorb the flavor.

---

After that, I added a cup of water to the pan.

---

To add more flavor to the sauce, I am going to add half of the pork broth cube to the pan.

---

Next, I am going to add a half teaspoon of umami seasoning.

---

To balance the flavor, I added 1 teaspoon of brown sugar, and it served as a thickener to the sauce, too.

---

Then I close the lid and let it cook for about 5-10 minutes.

---

Time for plating and happy eating, everybody! :D
