by Manny Montala

Crispy Kare-Kare Pork Pata This is a variation of the all time Pinoy favorite, the kare-kare dish. This is a creative version of the pork pata kare-kare where the pork pata or pork hocks are cooked first as a crispy pata. The pork pata is boiled first and added with aromatics until tender then deep fried. The kare-kare sauce is made and cooked separately unlike the usual kare-kare dish where the sauce and the meat are cooked together. And also the vegetables are also cooked separately by either steaming or frying whichever you prefer. There are also ways to serve it, you can serve the kare-kare sauce separately with the pork pata and vegetables or you can drizzle to sauce on the arranged meat and vegetables.   How to Cook Crispy Kare-Kare Pork Pata   Print Prep time Cook time Total time   Author: Manny Recipe type: Pork Recipe Cuisine: Filipino Serves: 3 to 4 servings Ingredients 1 whole pork pata, cleaned and hairs removed 1 tsp. whole black pepper ½ Tbsp. course salt 1 pc onion, quartered water for boiling cooking oil for frying sauteed shrimp paste (bagoong alamang) Ingredients for the kare-kare sauce: 3 cups beef or pork broth 6 Tbsp. peanut butter 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 Tbsp. soy sauce ½ tsp. ground pepper 1 Tbsp. patis 2 Tbsp. glutinous rice flour 2 pcs eggplant, sliced 2 bundles string beans (chopped into 3 inches length) 2 bundles pechay 2 Tbsp. cooking oil ½ tsp. achuete powder Instructions How to cook Crispy Kare-Kare Pork Pata: In a pot, combine pork pata, whole black pepper, onion, salt and enough water just to cover the pork pata.
