Been cooking Kare-Kare since I start to have my own kitchen. From there my passion for cooking started and of course, there's a lot of burned toast made, half-cooked rice, burned fried fish, and overcooked veggies and the story goes on...
I learned from it and been proud that my cooking ability developed over time. And this quarantine period I did enjoy cooking meals again for the family.
Let me share the easiest and simplest way to cook Pinoy Kare-Kare.
