Filipino Pork Barbeque



Filipino Pork Barbeque

3 lbs thin cut center cut pork loin chops, pounded until very thin (between 1/8-1/4 inch) and cut into 1 inch wide slices against the grain (or you can use pork butt, partially frozen for easier cutting, and slice thin) (I used pork butt because I like that it has a little more fat. You still might need to trim some of the fat. You can also use pork belly, just remove the skin before slicing.)

Marinade:
1 can 7-up (12 oz.)
1/2 c. oil
3/4 c. soy sauce (I used gluten-free soy sauce)
3/4 c. brown sugar
3/4 c. ketchup or banana ketchup (I used regular gluten-free ketchup)
6 Tbsp. lemon juice (about 2 lemons, squeezed)
8 garlic cloves, smashed
4 big scallions, chopped or 1 small-medium onion, chopped (I used a medium onion)
1 tsp. kosher salt
Ground black pepper
If you like spice, add 2 tsp. sriracha hot sauce or more, or 1-2 tbs. Frank's red hot sauce, or any chili sauce or fresh chilis (optional) (I left this out)

Basting sauce:
1/2 c. 7-up
1/4 c. soy sauce (I used gluten-free soy sauce)
1/4 c. ketchup (I used regular gluten-free ketchup)
1/4 c. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. lemon juice





Cooking Instructions:


Prepare the pork as noted above. Mix the marinade ingredients together well. Combine the pork and marinade in a Ziploc bag. Seal and put in the fridge for a minimum or four hours, but better yet overnight or up to 2 days. (I marinated mine overnight.)
Soak bamboo skewers in water for a few hours or overnight to avoid burning when cooking.

When getting ready to cook, slide pork onto skewers, putting several pieces on each skewer as fits with room on the bottom to hold the stick.

Barbecue over medium-high heat over hot coals or gas grill until pork is done, basting as necessary to put a nice glaze on the meat. Depending on the thickness of the pork, you can char the meat first and then move it to a cooler side of the grill to finish cooking. (I also continuously basted the meat. I separated the basting sauce into two bowls-- one for raw meat while it was cooking, another to baste the cooked meat just in case of contamination).

Pancit Molo (Filipino Dumpling Soup)





 

Pancit Molo (Filipino Dumpling Soup)



for the broth
1 quart organic chicken stock
2 bay leaves
1 medium or half a large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 tsp salt
1 tsp whole black peppercorns
1lb chicken, bone in (I used leg quarters)
water
1 tbsp fish sauce (Patis), or more to taste


for the dumplings
1lb ground pork
1/2lb shrimp, shelled, deveined and minced
1/2 cup green onion, finely chopped
1 tsp sesame oil
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg
1/4 tsp salt (or more to taste)
freshly ground pepper, to taste
~60 wonton wrappers

to garnishchopped green onions
fried garlic

Cooking Instructions:
for the broth
In a large stockpot, place chicken stock, bay leaves, diced onion, garlic, salt and whole peppercorns and bring to a boil. Add in chicken pieces and additional water (enough to cover the chicken, about 4 cups) and simmer over medium-low for 2 hours. Skim off any impurities that come to the surface. The broth should be rich in flavor, but not salty – the salt will come from the addition of fish sauce (patis) later.
Remove the chicken from the stock. Once cool enough to handle, remove skin and bones and shred chicken meat. Set aside.
for the dumplings
In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork, minced shrimp, green onion, sesame oil, white onion, garlic, egg, salt and pepper.  Take the time to fry up a small patty of the mixture to check for seasoning – you can’t season once the filling is inside the wrapper. Do yourself a favor and try it out before you start filling the dumplings. Adjust seasonings as needed.
To fold the dumplings, place 1/2 tbsp of filling in the center of the wrapper. Wet the perimeter of the wrapper with your finger. Join opposite corners of the wrapper together to form a triangle. Carefully seal the edges together, making sure you’re pushing out any air bubbles around the filling. With the top of the triangle pointed away from you, fold the left and right sides over each other, using a little water to seal the edges. It should look like the dumpling is giving itself a nice, tight hug. Repeat.



assembly
In a medium or large pot, place shredded chicken and add 1 tbsp of fish sauce (patis) and saute over medium high heat for a couple of minutes. Add 7-8 cups of stock to the pot and bring to a boil. Add in dumplings, no more than about 15 at a time, and cook about 6-8 minutes. They’ll float to the top once they’re done. Cook in batches as needed.
Serve this as is, garnished with green onions and fried garlic, or serve over white rice for a more filling meal.

Ensaymada





Ensaymada



Dough :

3/4 cup lukewarm water
3 tsp dry active yeast
1 tsp sugar

6 1/2 cups strong flour (bread flour)
1 cup sugar
3 Tbsp melted butter
3 egg yolks
2 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup cooking oil

Topping:

 
butter - softened to room temperature
granulated sugar
grated cheddar




Cooking Instructions:

  1. Mix the yeast,lukewarm water, and sugar in a small bowl, cover and set aside. After about 10-15 minutes it should start to foam. If it didn't that means your yeast is probably old. In that case, throw away the mixture and start again. If you are using instant, rapid-action, or fast-action dry yeast you can skip this step and add the yeast and sugar directly with the flour and the water with the other wet ingredients.
  2. Combine the flour with the sugar in a large bowl.
  3. In separate bowl, mix the melted butter, egg yolks, and vanilla.
  4. Add in the milk. Mix well.
  5. With a wooden spoon or with a mixer on low speed, stir in the milk mixture and the yeast mixture into the flour mixture. Combine well.
  6. Add in the cooking oil and mix until well combined.
  7. Cover and let it rest to rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until double the size.
  8. Punch down dough and turn out onto a well-floured surface.
  9. Knead the dough while adding more flour. In the end it should be soft and sticky but should come away from fingers when kneading.
  10. Prepare the baking moulds by brushing the bottom and sides with softened butter.
  11. Divide into portions - 75-80 g  for medium-sized ensaymada and 25-30 g  for small ones.
  12. On a greased surface, roll out each portion thin into a rectangle shape and brush generously with softened butter or with your choice of fillings - cheese, chocolate, ham, etc.
  13. Roll portion from the long side into a thin log (about 1/2-inch or less in diameter).
  14. Coil the rolled dough into a spiral shape inside the prepared moulds taking care to tuck in the outer end.
  15. Cover loosely with tea towel and let rest at room temperature for 1-2 hours. They will double in size again.
  16. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C/fan 160°C/350°F for about 18-20 minutes for medium-sized ensaymada.
  17. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  18. Put toppings - slather softened butter then press top onto a small bowl full of sugar then sprinkle grated cheese on top.
