Рецепт Bulalo Mami
Bulalo is a beef shank soup dish that is very popular in the Philippines, definitely one of the best comfort dishes out there as this is usually served during cold and wet days, to people who are sick, moms who breast feeds, at 2am in the morning after a drinking spree as well as a hangover cure. A dish so popular restaurants called bulaluhan specialize in it.
So what specifically is this dish? It’s basically large chunks of beef leg bones with meat intact boiled with onions, peppercorn and sometimes corn for a long period of time making the collagen really tender and meat that almost fall out of the bone. But that’s not all, the most prized aspect of this dish is the bone marrow the fatty insides in the centre of that leg bone.
If you can imagine it’s quite a fatty meal hence it’s not recommended for daily consumption as the cholesterol levels of this dish may exceed the fanciest burger you can find but once in a while it won’t hurt you. Usually this dish is served with rice and some fish sauce but today instead of rice we will use fine egg noodles and here is the result.
