Filipino Pork Adobo

Adobo may well be the national dish of the Philippines, and each household has its own version. The defining flavors are vinegar, garlic, black pepper, bay and salt in some form (often soy sauce). For this version of pork adobo, instead of the oft-used pork belly, we opted for boneless shoulder because it is easier to find in supermarkets but still is rich and flavorful. Honey, or any type of sweetener, is an unconventional ingredient in adobo, but we liked the way it balanced the salty and sour flavors in the dish. The serranos give the braise a gentle spiciness; if you prefer, use just one chili or keep both whole. Serve this over rice to soak up the sauce.

Ingredients
  • 2

    tablespoons grapeseed or other neutral oil

  • 2

    bunches scallions, white and light green parts cut into 1-inch pieces, green parts thinly sliced, reserved separately

Directions
  1. 01
    On a 6-quart Instant Pot, select More/High Sauté. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the scallion whites, garlic and bay, then cook without stirring until golden brown on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Stir and continue to cook, stirring only once or twice, until darkly browned, about another 2 minutes. Press Cancel, then stir in the soy, vinegar, honey, serranos and 1 teaspoon pepper, scraping up any browned bits. Add the pork; stir to combine, then distribute in an even layer.
