Bulalo Beef Pares Recipe

Bulalo Beef Pares is a version of my favorite Pares recipe that makes use of beef shank, which is locally know in the Philippines as bulalo. It has the same delicious taste of pares and the richness and beefy flavor of bulalo. Believe me, it is really good!

Bulalo Beef Pares is a crossover between a Filipino beef shank soup known as Bulalo, and a favorite meal combination composed of stewed beef, garlic fried rice, and soup — this is called beef pares.

This recipe literally performs the same process to make each individual dish. For example, the first process involves making the beef tender by boiling in a pressure cooker. This is almost the same step as cooking bulalo, except that I had to cook the beef shank further by stewing it in a sweet soy based mixture, which is actually the preparation for making beef pares.

If you are interested to try this dish, I suggest to schedule it during the weekend so that you will have extra time to prepare and enjoy the dish. Take it easy on the garlic fried rice because there is a huge chance that you will need this advice.
