00:00One of the signature dishes of Bulacan is what they call Serkele.
00:07It's made from beef, but their original version is using beef.
00:13So that's the dish that we'll try to replicate.
00:16And one of the things that I think you need to use when you're doing a dish here in Paumbong,
00:25you need to use Paumbong vinegar.
00:27For our Serkele, I'll be using a towel, of course.
00:34And Paumbong.
00:36So this is the largest intestine.
00:38We've already washed it thoroughly.
00:42And to soften it, I'll also add some Paumbong vinegar.
00:49Just to remove the excess funk or lansa.
00:56And of course, we're gonna add in some aromatics, of course.
00:59We have ginger, garlic, onions, pepper, and salt.
01:13We'll also add water.
01:19And we will use pressure cooker.
01:22We'll cook this for approximately an hour to an hour and a half.
01:34So we've pressure cooked this for more than one and a half hours.
01:39You can see the texture.
01:42The pork is now tender.
01:47And our Tumbong, or our large intestine, is also very tender.
01:55So we have there our pan.
01:58Let's add some oil.
02:00Our ginger.
02:02Let's add in our onions.
02:07Garlic.
02:13I'll just cut this in half.
02:15And then we'll put it in the pressure cooker.
02:17And we'll cook this for an hour and a half.
02:19And of course, we'll add some water.
02:21And of course, we'll cook this for an hour and a half.
02:23And we'll cook this for an hour and a half.
02:25I'll just cut this into two portions.
02:42Let's also add our chili.
02:44Now for our first version,
02:46we want to cover the inside of our beef.
02:50We're going to add in our beef blood.
02:53We're going to add in our beef blood.
03:01Just to get rid of the funk or the blood,
03:06we'll add more vinegar.
03:12And then let's season this with sugar
03:15and soy sauce.
03:19So we'll just let this cook
03:21and then we can focus on our next version
03:23which is the sirkele that is not made with animal fat.
