3 links chorizo

3 links chorizo

1/2 cup cooked garbanzo beans

4 cloves garlic, minced

pepper

1/4 kilo pork livers

1/2 kilo pork cubes

3 large potatoes, peeled and diced

1/4 cup raisins

salt

6 mediums size tomatoes

Equipment:

frying pan

wok

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Heat your wok or big kawali. Make sure it's hot before you put oil. Fry the potatoes until half-cooked. Set aside.
  2. On the same pan, add butter and garlic. Do not burn the garlic.
  3. Add the pork, tomatoes, onions and bell pepper. Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add 1 pork cube for a richer flavor. Reduce to low heat. Juices will eventually come out from the vegetables so no need to add water. Cover, stirring occasionally. Simmer until pork is tender or until the liquid has almost dried up leaving a thick sauce.
  4. Add the liver, cover for about 5 minutes. I'm adding the liver at a later part because we don't want to overcook it. Liver cooks fast and it can be tough if overdone.
  5. Add the potatoes, carrots, green peas and raisins (and the rest of the ingredients, if any). Simmer for 15 more minutes stirring occasionally.
  6. Serve with steamed rice.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
