1 onion ( sliced thinly)
ground pepper according to your taste

2. Then serve with extra condiments and chili to enjoy.

Chop Suey with Pork (Carenderia style)

Chop suey is a mixed stir fried vegetable dish. It is one of the special vegetable dishes that I can not resist :-).

1/2 kilo carrots
1/2 kilo Baguio beans
1 kilo cabbage
1 onion
3 cloves garlic
3 sayote

2 dozens quails egg (hard boiled)
salt to taste

Procedure:
1. Saute the garlic and onion, then add the pork and continue to saute until it is brownish. Add the water and bring to a boil.
2.  Add the carrots and sayote,  then give a good stir and simmer for 2 minutes.
3.  Add the green beans and stir well simmer for 2 minutes then add the cabbage and salt to taste,  then simmer until done then add the quail's eggs.
4. Serve it hot.

You can add cornstarch to thicken.

Beef Giniling (Carenderia Style)

What I liked in this dish is the color and taste, at first I thought it has tomato sauce but I was wrong, it is the annatto or atsuete that made the color looked deep orange and the aroma from annatto will boost your appetite. Try this recipe.

1 onion diced
1 tomato diced
3 cloves garlic
2 potatoes (diced)

3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon atsuete powder (annatto)
1 beef cube
water- just enough to cook everything
 cornstarch to thicken ( dissolved in water)

Procedure:
1. Saute the garlic and onion then add the ground beef and let simmer until the pinkish color of the meat is gone.
