Pineapple Porkchop

I cooked pineapple porkchop yesterday and I tried to cook it based on memory since I didn't get to write down the recipe when my mom taught me this dish.

I didn't measure any of the ingredients because I just eyeballed everything.

I had 4 pcs of porkchop and marinated it for a couple of hours in soy sauce (I like the low sodium variety), calamansi and garlic.

Fry the porkchop pieces. On the side, I mixed some pineapple juice with some of the marinade and a teaspoon of cornstarch powder. Set this aside.

After the porkchops are cooked, set aside. I only removed a bit of the oil from the frying pan, then I poured in the pineapple juice mixture. By the way, my mom just uses the juice from the canned pineapple tidbits. But I like my porkchops with a bit more sauce so I use a lot of juice, about half of a canned pineapple juice.

Then I put back the porkchop pieces and let simmer a bit. When it's nearly done, I throw in some pineapple tidbits.

Our Home Office



We had this office desk made recently from a design we saw in an Ikea catalogue. It's not exactly an efficient desk. By efficient I mean that there are no drawers where I can keep supplies, papers, etc. But we love the clean lines of the desk. It's a mess right now since it's covered with various papers and the room where it's at is an even bigger mess. We'll get around to fixing everything up sooner or later.
