What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!


2 pounds chicken parts
2 pounds boneless pork shoulder or butt, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 cup distilled white vinegar
1 cup water
8 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons salt
freshly ground pepper to taste
2 bay leaves
vegetable oil for frying
Combine all ingredients except the vegetable oil in a large pot and stir to dissolve the salt. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 1 hour.
Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat and simmer covered for 40 minutes until the pork is tender.
Remove the pork and chicken and boil the remaining sauce uncovered until it has thickened and reduced to about 1 cup.
Meanwhile, heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat until it is very hot but not smoking. Fry the meats a few pieces at a time until browned and crisp on all sides.
Arrange the meat on a platter and top with the sauce.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
