Ginataang Hipon (Shrimp with Coconut Milk)

Adobong Pusit (Squid Cooked in Soy Sauce and Vinegar)

My husband and I love squid. It is one of our favorite food. So whenever we get a chance to go to the Asian store, we usually get some squid. Then I make it into adobo. Adobo is a Filipino style of cooking using vinegar and soy sauce. Since my husband likes to have more sauce when he eats because he mixes it with the white rice, my recipe uses more soy sauce, vinegar, and water. But if you don't want a lot of sauce on it, you can just lessen the amount of those three ingredients.


Ingredients:
2 lbs. Squid,cleaned
1 medium onion,chopped
3 cloves garlic,minced
1 bay leaf
Small slice of ginger
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
3/4 cup water
Salt and pepper, to taste
Vetsin(optional)
2 tbsp. Cooking oil


Heat oil in the skillet. Then add the onions and garlic and saute it until onion gets transparent.
Add the ginger and then the bay leaf.
Next, add the squid. Stir and saute it for at least 3 minutes. Sprinkle with a little freshly ground pepper.
Then add the soy sauce and vinegar. Let it boil. Then add the water.
Let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes.
Season with a little salt if needed.
Serve.
