Welcome to Panlasang Pinoy!
01:04.0
We will be cooking Nilagang Pata.
01:08.0
This is a special version.
01:10.0
And we will be having it with a side dish that is a must-have.
01:14.0
Nilagang Okra and Eggplant with a delicious sauce.
01:20.0
This is the Bagoong Isda with Onion.
01:24.0
This is the ingredients that we will be using.
01:30.0
Pechay or Bokchoy.
01:35.0
Bitsuelas or Long Green Beans.
02:02.0
We will also be using water.
02:05.0
And here is the complete list of the ingredients.
02:10.0
Visit PanlasangPinoy.com for the complete recipe.
02:16.0
If you are ready, let us now start.
02:18.0
I already washed the pork leg, but to make sure that the fibers are removed, I am slicing it.
02:25.0
This step is just optional.
02:27.0
And if you will do it, be careful.
02:30.0
Once it is sliced, this is okay.
02:32.0
We will now boil it.
02:34.0
I just added water in our pot.
02:37.0
And I am adding the pork leg one by one.
02:41.0
So what I am doing is I am boiling the pork leg first.
02:44.0
Initially, for about 10 minutes.
02:47.0
We will just cover it so that it will boil faster.
02:51.0
After boiling the pork leg for 10 minutes, you will notice that the scum is floating.
02:57.0
There are the bone marrow pieces, the oil from the pork leg, and so on.
03:03.0
That is why I am removing the pork leg from here.
03:06.0
I am just putting it in the colander and after that, I am just washing it well.
03:09.0
And I am also cutting the bone marrow.
03:12.0
When it comes to our pork stock or the boiling water,
03:16.0
I am making sure that it is clean because I am still cleaning it.
03:19.0
After that, I am continuing to cook it.
03:22.0
Another method here is you can throw away the water and add new water.
03:28.0
I am just returning the pork leg that I have already cleaned.
03:30.0
And once our pork stock has boiled again, let us now add our Knorr Pork Cube.
03:37.0
This is what I am using when I am cooking Nilaga, just like this Nilagang Pata.
03:42.0
So that the taste of the pork will be complete in our dish.
03:46.0
And when added, just mix it a bit.
03:49.0
Then, I am also adding the whole pepper.
03:52.0
And I am also adding the garlic.
03:54.0
And when added, just mix it a bit.
03:56.0
Then, I am also adding the whole pepper.
04:01.0
What I am using here is yellow onion, but you can also use white onion.
04:09.0
I am just covering the pan.
04:11.0
And I am just continuing to cook it until the pork leg is completely tender.
04:16.0
When it comes to our cooking, let us just adjust the heat to the lowest setting.
04:20.0
While the pork leg is being tenderized, let us first make the side dish.
04:24.0
This is also very simple.
04:26.0
I am just boiling the okra and eggplant.
04:29.0
That is why it is called Nilagang Okra Talong, right?
04:32.0
The eggplant that I am using is the round one, the small one.
04:35.0
It is a bit thick, right? But you can also use Chinese or Japanese eggplant.
04:40.0
The one that we are used to use.
04:42.0
I am just boiling it for 3-5 minutes.
04:45.0
If you want it to be more tender, just boil it longer.
04:48.0
After that, I got some ice and water and put it in a bowl.
04:52.0
And I am blanching the okra.
04:55.0
This will retain the color and at the same time the texture of the okra when you will do this.
05:00.0
But this is just optional.
05:02.0
When it comes to the eggplant, I am letting it be fully cooked.
05:06.0
Because it is a bit thick, right?
05:08.0
To make sure that the middle part is also cooked, I am getting a bamboo skewer.
05:12.0
Or what we know as a barbeque stick.
05:14.0
And I am just sticking it in the middle.
05:16.0
Just to make sure that the heat penetrates.
05:19.0
I am not cutting the eggplant because if we cut it before boiling, it will just absorb the water.
05:25.0
The eggplant is now ready.
05:27.0
This is the eggplant that I am not blanching.
05:30.0
So there, I am putting it in the serving plate right away.
05:32.0
And I am cutting it first, of course, before we serve it.
05:36.0
I am just cutting it in the middle.
05:37.0
So of course, we can make sure that it is fully cooked.
05:42.0
This is now okay.
05:44.0
Let us now prepare the sauce.
05:46.0
And this really goes well with the pork hock.
05:49.0
This is the sauce that is used by bagoong isda.
05:53.0
Let us now start.
05:55.0
This is just a simple recipe.
05:57.0
I am just using red onion.
06:02.0
I am just chopping this into small pieces.
06:04.0
And if you like it spicy, you can add Thai chili pepper or chili labuyo.
06:10.0
After that, this also has tomatoes.
06:12.0
One to two tomatoes is enough.
06:14.0
And I will be using my personal rule.
06:16.0
Since I will not be cooking this sauce, I am just removing the seeds.
06:21.0
I am just not removing the seeds from the tomatoes when I am cooking this.
06:26.0
After that, I am just continuing with the cutting.
06:29.0
I am just dicing it.
06:31.0
Those are our ingredients.
06:33.0
This is now okay.
06:35.0
We will just mix it together and put it in a bowl.
06:42.0
What other ingredients can we put in here?
06:47.0
Comment it down below.
06:49.0
After that, I am also putting ground black pepper.
06:54.0
After that, I am also putting ground black pepper.
06:56.0
After that, I am also putting ground black pepper.
06:59.0
And this is now the bagoong isda.
07:01.0
What I am using here is what we call bagoong balayan.
07:04.0
This is what is available here near us.
07:06.0
But you can use any type of bagoong isda.
07:11.0
I am just mixing it well.
07:13.0
It is already okay.
07:15.0
But we will still complete it.
07:17.0
To reduce the smell and to complete the taste, I am putting lemon.
07:23.0
I am squeezing a whole lemon here.
07:24.0
You can use calamansi here.
07:26.0
About 4 to 5 calamansi.
07:28.0
Or you can also use lime.
07:30.0
2 pieces of lime would be perfect.
07:32.0
Let us now taste it.
07:34.0
The okra is slimy.
07:36.0
Of course, it is just okra.
07:38.0
What is your taste?
07:42.0
Guys, it is up to you.
07:45.0
We will now continue cooking.
07:47.0
At this point, the pork leg is so tender.
07:50.0
If you don't believe it, here. Let us check it.
08:00.0
What we want here in the pork leg is for it to be so tender.
08:04.0
The type that is fall off the bone.
08:06.0
And when it comes to the skin, it should be the type that is so tender that you can just pull out your fingers.
08:13.0
Let us now put the other ingredients.
08:15.0
For our recipe, I am using corn.
08:18.0
This is sweet corn so that it would be better.
08:20.0
When it comes to corn, you can use fresh, of course, that is the best.
08:24.0
Or you can also use frozen.
08:26.0
But if you are going to use frozen corn, thaw it first before you put it.
08:30.0
I am also putting the potatoes at the same time.
08:33.0
Did you notice that the potatoes are placed in a bowl with water earlier?
08:37.0
That is what I am doing so that it would be easier for it to cook.
08:40.0
It means that when we soak it in water, the potatoes would not turn brown or turn black.
08:44.0
Compared to when we did not soak it.
08:46.0
After chopping it.
08:50.0
We will just continue cooking it for about 10 minutes.
08:54.0
And after 10 minutes, we will now put the other vegetables.
08:59.0
This is what I want in our dish.
09:01.0
Aside from the delicious taste of the pork leg,
09:04.0
the flavor of the sweet corn,
09:05.0
and the other vegetables,
09:07.0
this is what I want in our dish.
09:09.0
Aside from the delicious taste of the pork leg,
09:11.0
there are a lot of different kinds of vegetables.
09:14.0
That is why you will really enjoy eating it.
09:17.0
So speaking of sajog for the nilaga,
09:20.0
aside from what I am using here,
09:22.0
do you still have something to put when you are cooking your nilaga?
09:29.0
I have already put the bechuelas or the long green beans or baguio beans.
09:33.0
There are a lot of names for it, right?
09:35.0
When it comes to the long green beans,
09:37.0
I just removed the whole leaf and then I sliced it in the middle.
09:41.0
Of course, we have already washed it.
09:45.0
When you put the long green beans,
09:47.0
just mix it a bit but be careful.
09:49.0
Because the pork leg is so soft,
09:51.0
the seeds might fall off.
09:53.0
This is the bechay.
09:55.0
You can also use bok choy.
09:59.0
Even if there are a lot, it is okay.
10:01.0
Because when the vegetables are cooked, it shrinks, right?
10:04.0
That is why I am just covering it.
10:07.0
Then I am just letting it cook for 1-2 minutes.
10:10.0
You will notice that after that,
10:12.0
the vegetables shrinks a bit.
10:15.0
That means that it is easier for us to mix it.
10:21.0
I am just adjusting the heat.
10:25.0
From the medium setting, I just put it on low.
10:27.0
And I am just tossing the vegetables
10:29.0
to distribute it in the pan.
10:33.0
Then we will just cook it for a while.
10:35.0
Even if it is just for 2 minutes, that is already okay.
10:41.0
After 2 minutes, we can now season it.
10:46.0
As you can see, this is already okay.
10:49.0
We can now enjoy it.
10:52.0
I am just adding fish sauce.
10:54.0
After that, it is done.
10:56.0
This is now ready, our Nilulutong Nilaga.
10:59.0
Of course, it is important for you to make sure that the seasoning is just right.
11:03.0
Taste it first so that you can adjust it as necessary.
11:10.0
This is now our Nilagang Pata.
11:18.0
We can now transfer it into a serving bowl and let us taste it.
11:24.0
This is really delicious, especially when it is cooked.
11:26.0
This is really delicious, especially when the weather is cold or rainy, the soup is perfect.
11:31.0
But actually guys, even if it is not cold and rainy, as long as there is a soup like this, it is still okay.
11:40.0
And guys, I am not sure if you have tried what I am doing.
