    Sinantomas

    Sinantomas is a Filipino dish that is often mistaken as kaldereta because it has many similarities with the latter.

    You may be thinking that this recipe is something that will make the identification of similar Filipino dishes like kaldereta, menudo, and afritada even more difficult; but worry not because the recipe can be easily distinguished and is actually a lot different from any other Filipino food once you get to taste and identify its ingredients.

    The province of Quezon is known for its unique delicacies. It is also one of the major contributors when it comes to the entirety of Filipino cuisine. Even Pinoys from different areas of the country love traveling to Quezon province to taste their authentic variety of foods.

    Sinantomas is a pride of Quezon province, just like the local version of the worldwide famous dish known as braised beef, except the Quezonian version includes tomato sauce (or ketchup) and spareribs. Then add in the slices of potatoes and its other flavorings like soy sauce, pineapple juice, and delectable cheese to complete the recipe.

    How to Cook Sinantomas

    • Marinate the pork spare ribs with pineapple juice, soy sauce, banana ketchup, salt and pepper. Put it inside the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
    • In a pan over medium heat, add the oil and pan-fry the potatoes until lightly brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
    • Sauté the onion and garlic until the onions are translucent. Add the marinated pork spare ribs without the liquid. Cook for 7-10 minutes or until tender.
    • Pour the marinate liquid and water. Put back the potatoes, continue to cook until the liquid is reduced.
    • Add in the frozen green peas and shredded cheese. Let it simmer until the sauce thickens.

    There are many Pinoy dishes that make use of pork as their main ingredient because of how it can mix well with different flavors. Also, pork meat (including spareribs) is not all fats, it is actually filled with healthy nutrients too, especially if the lean part of the meat is used for the recipes. It contains heaps of iron and many kinds of B vitamins, plus a lot more of the minerals that can help the body function better.

    Sinantomas is a mixture of tasty flavors including sweet and savory. The soy sauce will handle the saltiness of the recipe while the tomato sauce will offer a little bit of sweetness to it. The pineapple juice will also add more sweetness, a tiny bit of sour taste, and a more tangy flavor to the meal. And the cheese? It makes everything better! The dish tastes the best when paired with newly cooked rice and eaten during lunch or dinner.
