• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

It ain't que, but it has pork, so.....

Gandule Rice, a Puerto Rican dish, adapted to the local Hawaiian flavors...almost like the original...

Sauteed chopped pork steaks in Anchote oil, w/ onion and bell peppers
added cumin, salt, pepper, bayleaf, tomato sauce
added rice, and water, pidgeon peas, and olives, simmered until rice abosorbed liquid, finished in oven, you're suppose to add cilantro, but I forgot to buy:rolleyes:
I hear that Goya makes a seasoning packet, for this...make your base strong so that when you add your rice and water it won't be bland tasting...enjoy!

Looks good...!!!

My wife's family is of Puerto Rican descent and occasionally on holidays I get to sample these dishes...

Is the Goya product you refer to called Recaito ?? I think that is their Cilantro based seasoning sauce.. They also sell Sofrito which is a tomato based seasoning sauce..

I make mine from scratch, the goya packets are called "Sazon".
I had it some over easy eggs tonite.
 
Sazon is basically the ground achiote (annato) seeds. They're kinda like paprika in that they add a lot of color to a dish but not much flavor.
