Adobong Palaka in Achuete Oil Recipe




I was in my local Asian grocery store today and saw this package (below) in the frozen aisle so I said why not give it a try. I had fed my family Chicken Feet Adobo and Balut so for sure they won't be that shock seeing frog legs in the dinning table. 

To cut it short, kids said it taste like chicken but hubby said it's not as good as chicken. O well, what matter is they ate it all.

Remember, not all frog are edible as some are poisonous so please be aware when buying.
