Adobong Pusit

 

Adobong Pusit or Squid Adboo is one of the simplest way of cooking squid wherein it is cooked in a soy sauce and other ingredients. I said very simple, in the sense that you don’t have to stay long cooking in the kitchen like other adobo recipes. Take note that you bought the one that is fresh or no foul smell; washed the Pusit well before cooking; and do not overcooked or else it becomes rubbery.

I love to eat this when cooked in a  delectable thick broth!

Ingredients:

• 1 kilo squid
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
•  cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 medium size onion, chopped
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Procedure for Adobong Pusit:

1. Wash and clean the squid properly especially on the mouth area, arms and tentacles. Drain well in a strainer.
2. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté garlic until brown and add-in onion.
3. Place Pusit in a pan and simmer for about 5 mins. (Cover the pan over medium heat). Stir occasionally.
4. Add-in soy sauce, sugar, salt and pepper. Simmer again for another 5 mins or until the squid is tender. Stir until a thick broth is formed. Don’t overcook.
5. Serve and enjoy!
