Let me start off this post by giving my non-Filipino readers a little introduction about Adobo. Adobo is a popular Filipino way of cooking and a dish that involves meat, veggies, or seafoods marinated in soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, peppercorns, oregano, garlic, and salt or fish sauce.

But different varieties of Adobo have sprung up over the years; each one has either kept all basic ingredients then just added new elements into the recipe, or kicked one or two ingredient/s out of the list. But all Adobo recipes must have these essentials: vinegar, peppercorn, salt, and garlic, or else, it won’t taste Adobo–ish at all.

In our family, Adobo has always been a part of my weekly meal plan, for two reasons: (1) because it’s a family favorite, and  (2) it’s one of the easiest recipes to make.

However, today’s feature recipe isn’t about making adobo, but how to turn it into a different dish. Sounds interesting? Wait. Let me turn up the volume a little more.  What if I tell you that our main ingredient for this recipe is a leftover adobo – soaked in a very rich and creamy garlic sauce, topped with overflowing cheese?

Drooling now?

There you go.

So without further blahs, here’s my
