Adobo is a popular Filipino dish and the process involves cooking the meat in soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and black peppercorns. But it has many variations and this recipe is just one of them. This is adobo with a twist as we incorporated coconut cream which makes it creamier and richer in taste.
The original adobo version already tastes delicious, but this creamy version is just as good! Perfect to eat during lunch or dinner, but actually any time of the day is good because you will surely be hooked on the taste of this dish!
Adobo may have different interpretations, but I bet all of them are heavenly!
