Pinatulang Baka

Pinatolang Baka, Nilagang Baka with Patola as the name suggest is a Filipino soup dish made up of fatty beef with patola instead of the usual nilaga vegetables. Cooking is straight forward the beef is boiled for hours until very tender and literary the meat will almost peel of from the bones if you are using beef buto- buto with is most of Pinoy favourite beef part for Beef Nilaga, Of course any beef meat cut may be used, for this post I used kamto. The patola is then added at the final stage of cooking or when the dish is ready to be serve. Here is the recipe of my Pinatolang Baka, Nilagang Baka with Patola.
