Ingredients :

about a kilo of bulalo (cross cuts of beef shank, bone in)
2 whole garlics
2 whole onions
3-4 plump and juicy tomatoes
1 large carrot
2 potatoes
2 chayote
patis
10-12 peppercorns
2 tbsps. of cooking oil

Cooking procedure

Place the bulalo in a thick bottomed cooking pan (I used a pressure cooker). Pour enough water to cover. Add a whole garlic and a whole onion and season with patis. Sprinkle the peppercorns on top. Simmer or pressure cook until tender. Transfer the meat to a plate; strain the broth.

Cool the meat then carefully separate the meat from the bone. Set the bone aside. Take care not to let the marrow slip out. Cut the meat into cubes (as small or as large as you want).

Mince the remaining garlic. Slice the remaining onion. Dice the tomatoes. Peel and core the chayote and cut into cubes the same size as the beef. Peel and cut the carrot and potatoes in the same size.

Heat the cooking oil. Saute the garlic and onion until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and continue cooking until the tomatoes start to turn soft. Pour in the strained broth. Adjust the seasoning. Add the chayote cubes and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the carrot cubes and simmer for another 5 minutes. Add the potato cubes and the meat and cook until the vegetables are done. I add the vegetables in that order because the chayote takes longest to cook.

To serve, ladle the soup, vegetables and meat into a soup tureen or large bowl. Arrange the reserved beef bone(s) with the marrow on top, at the center. Pour hot broth over the bone to reheat the marrow. Serve at once with a dipping sauce of kalamansi and patis on the side.

    oh, I love bone marrow! I have to admit, I don’t try to force the girls to try it or like it, this way I get to have them all to myself!! hehe :lol: I have yet to try your picadillo with sayote, this just might do it for me. I’ll be keeping an eye out for shanks with the marrows when I go to the store this weekend :-)

    41. To keep FRESH FLOWERS longer Add a little Clorox, or 2 Bayer aspirin, or just use 7-up instead of water.

    42. When you go to buy bread in the grocery store, have you ever wondered which is the freshest, so you “squeeze” for freshness or softness? Did you know that bread is delivered fresh to the stores five days a week? Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a different color twist tie. They are:

    Monday = Blue,

    Tuesday = Green,

    Thursday = Red

    Friday = White and

    Saturday = Yellow.

    So if today was Thursday, you would want red twist tie; not white which is Fridays (almost a week old)! The colors go alphabetically by color Blue- Green - Red - White - Yellow, Monday through Saturday. Very easy to remember. I thought this was interesting I looked in the grocery store and the bread wrappers DO have different twist ties, and even the ones with the plastic clips have different colors. You learn something new everyday! Enjoy fresh bread when you buy bread with the right color on the day you are shopping.
