JOLLIBEE STYLE SPAGHETTI (Filipino Style Spaghetti)

This is my own version  of cooking Jollibee Style Spaghetti.  I have been using this recipe for many years now, and I hope you'll like it.  By the way, I used lean chicken meat in this recipe because my daughter loved it so much, it's so kid friendly because the meat in the sauce is so tender.

the Spaghetti Sauce  HERE

Ingredients:

1/2 k Ground, lean chicken meat (or any meat you prefer)

2 tbsps cooking oil

2 tbsps garlic, chopped

3 pcs medium onions, chopped

1/2 c Soy Sauce (or more)

2 cups Tomato Sauce

1 cup Spaghetti Sauce

1 cup Banana Catsup

1/4 k hotdogs, sliced

1 cup button mushrooms in can, drained and sliced (optional)

1/2 c Sugar (add more if needed)

Salt and Pepper to taste

1 kilo    spaghetti noodles (cooked according to package instructions)

Procedure

1.  In a large skillet, saute garlic, then the chopped onion, when it turned translucent, add the ground chicken meat, saute and stir very well.  When the chicken meat turned a bit brown, add soy sauce, pepper and a dash of salt, stir well.

2.  Add the tomato sauce and the spaghetti sauce stirring occassionally, simmer for another 5-10 minutes, then add the banana catsup.  If it tends to be a bit dry, add around 1/4 cup water (or more if needed).   Simmer again for 5 minutes.

3.  Then add the sliced hotdogs and mushroom, let it simmer for a while.  Season to taste with sugar, salt and pepper.  Simmer for another 5-10 minutes. 

4.  Serve over cooked spaghetti pasta or any king of pasta you like.  Top with grated cheese.  Enjoy!

TIPS :

* Lately, I been adding bread crumbs, the one made from toasted bread.  You can still buy this in the groceries or bakeshops.  This will help thicken your sauce.

* Add more sugar if you prefer a sweeter version of spaghetti sauce, and also some tomato sauce are really sour

* If you run out of tomato sauce, you can use tomato paste, just a little bit more water to the sauce

* Soy sauce really make a huge difference in the color of the sauce, if makes it more red, just lessen the salt that you put into the sauce

SINIGANG NA BANGUS HERE

Sinigang is a Filipino dish characterized by the sour and savoury tamarind flavored soup.  Almost all Filipinos loved this dish, and it is very versatile as you can just change the main ingredient of the dish, in this case the Bangus (milkfish) and change it with cubed Pork Belly or Pork ribs (Sinigang na Baboy) or Shrimp (Sinigang na Hipon), and many other versions.

3-4 pcs    Tomatoes, sliced

4 pcs        Green long pepper
1 bundle   Kangkong (water spinach), washed
1 sachet   Sinigang Mix (Tamarind flavor)
1 liter      Water (add more if you want more broth)

Procedure:

In a big pot with boiling water, put the tomatoes and onions.  Simmer until they are soft.

Then add the Sinigang mix, let it simmer for awhile, then add the bangus... then after a few minutes of boiling, add the ginger, okra and green long pepper. 

Let it boil for a few minutes, cover the pot.  Then add the Kangkong leaves (washed again).  Let it cook for about 5 minutes or so (don't overcook the leaves).  Season to taste.  In a few minutes our Sinigang is ready :)  Enjoy!
