Kambing Sinigang


One of the best meat according to my family is the goat's meat, because its not too fatty and the taste is excellent. Aside from goat caldereta, goat sinigang is the next favorite in our list. It's yummy and addictive.

Pork Liver Afritada


Liver provides macronutrients you need for energy and tissue maintenance, including protein and fat. It also comes loaded with vitamins and minerals, with a single serving providing your entire recommended daily intake of some nutrients. While it can boost your health and fight nutrient deficiencies, consuming large servings of pork liver might increase your risk of an accidental nutrient overdose, so you should consume it in moderation.

Ingredients:
1/2 kilo pork liver
3 medium size potatoes ( sliced to your desired size)
2 carrots (sliced to your desired size)
3 cloves garlic
1 onion
1 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 cup water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
salt and pepper to taste


Procedure:
1. Saute the garlic and onion then add the liver and continue to saute for a minute.
2. Add the carrots, potatoes, tomato paste and  soy sauce, give a good stir and simmer for 5 minutes while stirring once in  a while.
3. Add water, salt and pepper to taste then simmer until fully cooked, then thicken with cornstarch.
4. Serve it hot.

I was tempted to cook this because while I am at the market this morning, the vendor of this is a very good one and was able to convinced me to buy this. I'm glad that I bought it, the soup is yummy, I am the one who ate the eye, that's extra yummy for me. Have you eaten tuna's eye before?
