Pakam apparently is a very old recipe which is almost unique to Bulacan, a region in the Philippines which is north of Manila.
I love chicken! I eat the meat almost everyday. Therefore a new recipe is always welcome. 🙂
Below is the pakam recipe.
Enjoy this piquant tasting dish with some beer or go Korean with some Soju!
Yum!
| Pakam Recipe:
Ingredients: 1 chicken, cut at the joints |
Method of preparation:
Arrange the chicken pieces into a large casserole pan. Add the vinegar, salt and pepper and cook until the liquid had evaporated. Debone the chicken and cut into bite size pieces. Using a large frying pan, add the butter and to it saute the garlic and when brown (not burnt) put in the onions, tomatoes and fish sauce. Also add the chicken pieces. Let it cook for a couple of minutes before adding the water. Bring the water into a boil. Add the radishes and continue cooking until the radishes are soft and tender but not mushy. Serve with freshly boiled rice or green salad. |
