My sis cooked Squid Adobo for our lunch | Cooking Vlog || Part 1

soy sauce

🥗Healthier: low-sodium soy sauce

💰Cheaper: salt

Low-sodium soy sauce reduces sodium intake.

vinegar

🥗Healthier: coconut vinegar

💰Cheaper: white vinegar

Coconut vinegar adds a unique flavor while being healthier.

squid

🥗Healthier: cuttlefish

💰Cheaper: frozen squid

Cuttlefish is a similar seafood option, often less expensive.

Wash and remove all unneeded parts of the squid, leaving the bile.

Cut the squid into cubes.

To avoid a slimy texture, mix 1 tablespoon of salt with the squid.

Carefully pull the head part of the squid to avoid cutting the bile.

Remove the transparent bone from the squid to avoid choking.

Peel and slice the onion.

Peel the garlic and squeeze it.

Add oil to a pan and heat it up.

Add garlic and onion to the pan and sauté until golden brown.

Add the squid to the pan and mix thoroughly.

Prepare 1/4 cup of soy sauce and add it to the pan.

Add 1 tablespoon of magic syrup to balance the taste.

Add 1/4 cup of coke to the mixture if sugar is not available.

Mix well and add hot water to boil the squid, but not for too long.

Add black pepper to make it a little spicy and let it boil for 5 minutes.
