How to cook Kare-kare
Kare-kare is one of the favorite of our family. Every time we’re am going back for vacation kare-kare is one on my check list to my mom to cook for me. Luckily before I am going back to KL she teaches me how to do it. This is also a bonding moment with me and my mom. She teaches me the traditional way of cooking kare-kare. It is a long process of how to make the sauce or the soup of the kare-kare. But thanks to technology, now I can make it with the pre-mix kare-kare.
I know my mom’s kare-kare is better than the kare-kare mix. But this kare-kare mix is a big help for me as an OFW.
Kare-kare is also one of the best dishes in the Philippines. Popular restaurant like Max listed kare-kare on their menu. I wish I can order this in a fast food chain like Jolibee someday.LOL
