Pata Tim

January 3rd, 2010 by Noemi Lardizabal-Dado

A lot of Pinoy cooking uses oil. A sure way to make healthy dishes is replacing regular cooking oil with olive oil. The dilemma of most Filipino homemakers lies on the high prices of olive oils, unlike the more affordable lesser quality oils. Fortunately, I got introduced to Olive oil that can provide the same throng of health benefits, not to mention a rich a flavorful taste without going over the budget. Once can cook Pata Tim with olive oil but don’t use virgin olive oil for cooking. Here is their recipe:

Ingredients

1 1/2 kilo Pork Leh (chopped)

1 head garlic (minced)

3 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons Oyster sauce

1 tablespoon rice wine

1 tablespoon patis

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 cup pork or beef stock

2 tablespoons cornstarch in 4 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon Pure Olive Oil

1 Tablespoon garlic

4 pieces lettuce leaves (sliced)

6 pieces Shiitake mushrooms (whole)

2 Star Anise (optional)

Procedure

1. In a pot, boil pork leg until tender and keep stock.

2. Baste pork leg with soy sauce and brown in oil.

3. In another casserole, boil water and put in pork legs to take out oil.
