Food for the family
Steaks cooked from frozen? I have cooked more steaks from frozen than I'd like to admit. But this method works. The steaks are always delicious with a good crust and wonderful flavor. (And unlike other methods you may find on the internet, no fire hazards involved.)
Siopao Bola Bola are light and fluffy steamed buns filled with a soft, tasty beefy meatball and served with a sweet-savory soy sauce for dipping. They are hearty, delightful and very satisfying.
Bulalo is a homey, boiled beef and marrow bone stew, slow-cooked and flavorful. This comforting Filipino favorite has fall-off-the-bone meat and a broth that is full-bodied and very beefy.
Mechado is a Filipino dish of tender pieces of beef cooked slowly in a stew of tomato, soy, lemon and bay leaf. Sometimes vegetables such as carrots and bell peppers are added. In our house, we often like to add Spanish olives and crispy potatoes.
Lumpiang Shanghai are crunchy, skinny little meat-filled spring rolls. They are served with a very flavorful sweet & sour sauce that has a good kick of garlic and ginger.
