Hamonado

Ingredients:

1 kilo ham, sliced thinly
1 cup pork fat, sliced thinly
2 whole pickles, sliced thinly
1 medium-sized carrot, cut into strips
1 small can pineapple chunks, drained (juice set aside)
1 small can pineapple juice
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp salt
round pineapple slices for garnishing

Procedure:

1. Combine the sugar and salt on a large plate. Rub the ham with this mixture
thoroughly, making sure tha the meat is coated well.
2. On a large platter, arrange the ham, pork fat, pickles, carrots and pineapple
chunks alternately.
3. Form the meat and other ingredients into a roll by tying a thread around them.
(Make sure the thread is thick enough to hold the meat and other ingredients
together.) Save any drippings from the meat roll.
4. Combine the meat drippings, pineapple juice, and the juice drained from the
pineapple chunks. Marinate the meat in this mixture overnight.
5. Boil the meat for 1 hour. Cut the thread tied around the meat roll. Let the meat
cool for a few minutes.
6. Garnish the meat roll (on top and on the sides) with pineapple slices.
