About me: I collect cookbooks and love to cook and try new recipes. I tested recipes for Leite's Culinaria for almost eight years. I learned to cook from many good southern cooks including my Mom, Dad, several Aunts and my Grandmothers. My children and husband also like to cook and try new foods and recipes. My son still lives with us but our daughter is married. She often visits to cook with me. We are adventuresome eaters willing to try new things.

Carne Asado Kapampangan : page 69

I cooked this during a Cook the Book with Jenni and Denise on Facebook. So happy I did it was delicious and I also won an autographed copy of this cookbook. The pork was super tender and loaded with flavor. I served it over Jasmine Rice as suggested by the author. She had us pan fry some potatoes to stir into the dish right before serving. My husband compared it to his mom's Spanish Pork Chops and Rice which he adores.
