Pork Loin in Ginger Soup, Tinolang Lomo

Pork Loin in Ginger Soup, Tinolang Lomo
Pork Loin in Ginger Soup is my version of tinolang baboy or tinolang lomo. Up north, in Ilocos the dish is just called lomo. In the original recipe, strips of pork loin sautéed with ginger are quickly boiled with water. Lomo soup is usually served at breakfast. This is a common practice when ever a hog is slaughtered at home backyards during fiesta celebrations. Slaughtering starts at pre-dawn, by early morning the pork loin are taken out and cooked for a warm soup breakfast for the butchers and cooks for the occasion.

Pork Loin in Ginger Soup

For my lomo soup version I cook it tinola style using chayote and topped with chili leaves. This is a good alternative to a regular chicken tinola, it is very quick to prepare and very healthy. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

1 kilo pork loin, cut into serving pieces
2 large size chayote, cut into wedges
2 thumb size ginger, cut into strips
1/2 head garlic, chopped
1 medium size onion, chopped
3-5 pcs. siling haba
1 bundle dahon ng sili, chili tops
2 tbsps. peppercorns
1/4 cup patis, fish sauce
salt
cooking oil

Champeni of Batangas . Champeni or champene, sampeni or sampene , whats in a name, the important is, this goat or beef innards dish is a must try when you are in Batangas .

Turbo Crispy Pata

Turbo Crispy Pata . “Turbo” in Pinoy cooking refers to a dish cooked in turbo broiler , the most common is turbo chicken . On this post I want to share how to turbo cook crispy pata . This post is actually overdue, several readers have been asking if I had tried to cook crispy pata using the turbo broiler on my first crispy pata recipe a few years back. Click this link Crispy Pata , to see that post. If you are interested there is also a bonelsee version in the archives, click the link Boneless Crispy Pata to see that post. Ok back to my Turbo Crispy Pata , the idea of cooking crispy pata using the turbo broiler is to drain out or at least reduce the fats. With turbo crispy pata we have a healthier version . However the turbo crispy pata would not have the usual crisp skin with moist and succulent meat of a traditionally deep fried crispy pata . At least it is easier to cook, you won’t be dealing with splashes of hot oil. Remember this was my first attempt, th...
