There’s something comforting about canned goods, especially when you're craving a hearty meal but don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen. So today, I experimented a bit in my humble kusina and tried cooking Delimondo Caldereta Corned Beef—but with my own twist.
Instead of just heating it straight from the can, I added some fresh ingredients to give it that home-cooked ulam feel. And guess what? It turned out better than I expected!
Ingredients I used:
- 1 can Delimondo Caldereta Corned Beef
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small carrot, cubed
- 1 small potato, cubed
- ½ red bell pepper, sliced
- A bit of cooking oil
- Salt, pepper, and chili flakes to taste(optional)
How I did it:
- Sauté magic – Started with the basics. I heated a little oil and sautéed the garlic until fragrant, then added the onion. Classic aroma that always makes me feel like a real cook.
- Soft and hearty – I threw in the carrots and potatoes next. Gave them a few minutes to soften a bit so they’re not too matigas when eaten.
- Delimondo time – Once the veggies were halfway done, I added the Delimondo Caldereta Corned Beef. It already has a rich, meaty flavor, but adding fresh veggies makes it more filling and masarap.
- Bell pepper boost – I tossed in the red bell pepper for that hint of sweetness and pop of color. Let everything simmer together so the flavors marry well.
- Season to taste – Final touch was some salt, pepper, and a little chili flakes for that mild kick.(chili optional)
The result? A comforting, leveled-up version of canned corned beef that’s perfect with hot rice. The carrots gave it a bit of crunch and sweetness, while the garlic and pomato made the caldereta flavors even richer.
Would I do it again? Absolutely! It’s a quick, tasty upgrade to your usual canned goods. Try it too, and don’t forget to serve it with love—and maybe a fried egg on the side!
