Pork Adobo sa Star

Oh yes another Adobo version. If you google Adobo you'll most probably find a thousand and one versions of Adobo, so this would bring it to a thousand and two, hehe! Well that is if nobody else had made this version before. But as far as my research goes, I've not really found one cooked with a Star! 
For this adobo version, I have thought of the distinct flavor Star Margarine had added to the Bacolod Chicken and how I think it would also give this Adobo a twist. Of course, the pork had still been cooked adobo style with just a difference of using annato oil and adding Star Margarine at the end. It was good, really! Try it!


Ingredients:
1/2kg pork (adobo cut)
1tbs star margarine
2 tbs vegetable oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp achuete (annato seeds)
3 tbs vinegar
1 cup water
salt and pepper


Method:
To prepare the annatto oil, heat the vegetable oil. When smoking hot, drop the achuete (annatto seeds) and roast until seeds had fully rendered their color. Remove the seeds.
Add in the garlic. Cook until slightly roasted. Add the onions. Cook until translucent and limp.
Put in the pork. Lower the heat and cook for about 10-15 minutes. 
Add the vinegar, salt, and pepper. Simmer for about 3-5 minutes then slowly add in water. Cover and cook for another 10 minutes. Check taste and sauce consistency.
Once level of consistency of the sauce is achieved, stir in the Star margarine until fully melted. 
Turn off heat.
Serve with steaming hot rice. Enjoy!
