    How to cook kalderetang kambing:

    • Marinate meat in ¼ cup sherry for at least 1 hour.
    • In a heavy frying pan over medium fire, heat ¼ cup of the oil until slightly smokey, then brown meat slightly.
    • Remove from pan and set aside. In a thick, medium pot with lid over low fire, heat the rest of the olive oil.
    • Saute garlic until light brown.
    • Add tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes then add tomato sauce and simmer another 5 minutes.
    • Stir mixture every 2-3 minutes to prevent burning.
    • Add meat to tomato mixture and simmer for 5 minutes.
    • Add water or broth and simmer another 10 minutes.
    • Add liver spread, pimiento, olives and cheese and simmer until meat is tender.
    • If the mixture is too thick, add more broth or water.
    • ( the time required to tenderize the meat depends a lot on the quality of the meat , so watch out that the liquid does not dry up.)
    • Season with hot sauce and salt to taste. Add remaining 2 tbsp sherry and simmer for 1 minute. Adjust seasonings to taste.
