Hello, how are you? I decided to cook early today, and to avoid clutter, whenever my brother cooks, he always makes a mess in the kitchen, which pisses me off so much. I am the one who always gets blamed for the mess I didn’t make.
Sorry for that, I just want to say what I felt because it is too much. LOL, but I am okay now. By the way, I am craving for chicken afritada or menudo, I don’t know, but I call it afritada hahaha. I added beans and spinach to it, or should I name it chicken cooked in tomato sauce, LOL. It has been months since we ate this dish, so I am going to cook it.

Let's Cook!
In a hot pan, I added about half a cup of cooking oil.
When the oil is hot enough, I fried the potatoes and carrots.
Until they changed color, after that, I set them aside for later.
In the same pan, I reduce the oil I use and leave about a tablespoon of it. Cook the chicken in the pan.
I cook it until the color and the texture of the chicken turn brown and crispy.
Then I added a dash of ground black pepper.
I added the aromatics like garlic, red onion, and ginger, along with celery and bell pepper cook them until
I added about 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, and let the sauce seep into the chicken for extra flavor.
I added 2 tablespoons of tomato paste for vibrant color and to thicken the sauce.
I added about 200g of Italian spaghetti sauce for a unique taste. Mix all.
I pour about 3-4 cups of hot water.
Then simmer it on medium heat for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, I added 100 grams of pork and beans.
2 tablespoons of cheese for a creamy taste.
To balance the taste, I added about a teaspoon of brown sugar.
I almost forgot to add butter, I added about a tablespoon for a unique taste, too.
To season the sauce, I use a chicken broth cube.
Mix them all and simmer on medium to low heat for another 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes.
After that, I added the spinach and cooked it for about 1-2 minutes only on low heat. And done!
Plated and served hot!
Happy
