Arroz Caldo Recipe

As I always say I am not an expert in cooking.. but I am so proud I was able to cook this once in while for my family.

Kids would only want boiled eggs which is fine as well but we just call it Egg Caldo then.

There are some other good ingredients that goes well with this. I love fried tofu with meat normally it is like a side dish with soysauce.. Tokwat Baboy in filipino

Image and recipe is from Panlasang Pinoy website.
