just add a tad of oyster sauce to bring out a new flavour. it really tastes great. however, do not put in too much. it is a bit sweet and is really wonderful.

I also do the same. I put oyster sauce and a bit of sugar on it and lots of black ground pepper.

The word "adobo" means marinating in Spanish. I´m sure this traditional dish was brought from Spain where it acquired some special traits due to the special ingredients the country had to offer. I have been checking at the extra ingredients that are in the phillipine recipes and I see soy sauce as a must and optional tomatoes or coconut milk.
