Adobo Flakes (Pork)

Adobo is something I can eat everyday, especially now that I’m abroad. Eating adobo just brings back so many good memories of my family from the Philippines that I can never get tired of it, even if I eat it everyday. Of course, I can’t do that because I also have a family to feed who love variety in their food, but still, adobo is life. If you want to change up your adobo leftovers, adobo flakes makes it new, but still with that adobo flavor that we all know and love.

When I was in Manila, I would order adobo flakes in the restaurant, and I thought it was so difficult to make. Now that I’m in Madrid and adobo flakes can’t be ordered in a restaurant, I had to learn to make it on my own. Since I was already making adobo, why not make adobo flakes? I did not know that it was going to be super easy. Well, it’s easy if you already have your adobo. If you still haven’t made that first part of the adobo, then it’ll take you longer. So, in short, adobo flakes is best made with leftover adobo. To make this, I used my pork adobo recipe, found here.

I eat adobo flakes with rice and eggs (because I’m a traditional Filipino who can’t eat adobo without rice), but you can also serve it with bread, sandwich style.
