Here’s a list of five Filipino dishes highlighting how versatile this smart cooking robot can be.
Adobo
Adobo is a Filipino classic, known for its rich, savory flavor and comforting aroma. With the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot’s precise heat control, you can perfectly simmer your chicken or pork in soy sauce, vinegar, and spices without babysitting the stove. The robot’s built-in sautéing function takes care of browning the meat evenly, while its integrated timer ensures the sauce thickens just right. It’s all about that perfect balance between tangy and salty, and the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot ensures you hit the flavor mark every time.
Sinigang
There’s nothing like the sour, comforting broth of good Sinigang, and with the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot, preparing it is almost effortless. Use the steam and boil functions to cook tender pork and extract the flavors of tamarind, tomatoes, and vegetables. The robot’s temperature sensors ensure that your broth simmers at the proper heat so the flavors meld beautifully without turning your veggies to mush. You can even set it to keep warm until you're ready to serve—making it perfect for busy weeknights or leisurely Sunday lunches.
Kare-Kare
Kare-Kare is often seen as a labor-intensive dish, but with the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot, it’s as easy as pressing a button. The robot's sautéing function is perfect for browning oxtail or beef, while its slow-cooking capability ensures the peanut-based sauce becomes thick and creamy without constant stirring. The integrated blending feature allows you to grind roasted peanuts into a smooth paste right in the cooking bowl, ensuring maximum flavor infusion. Pair it with bagoong (fermented shrimp paste), and you’ve got yourself a restaurant-worthy dish without the sweat.
Leche Flan
Who doesn’t love the sweet, creamy goodness of Leche Flan? With the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot, achieving the perfect custard consistency is a breeze. The robot’s precise temperature control ensures the egg mixture cooks evenly without overcooking or curdling. Its steam-cooking function is ideal for setting the flan, giving you that silky smooth texture. Say goodbye to guessing when your flan is done—this smart device takes care of it for you, so you can enjoy a caramel-topped dessert that melts in your mouth.
Halo-Halo
One of the standout features of the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot is its ability to shave ice, making it perfect for a summer favorite—Halo-Halo! No more manual ice crushers or bulky blenders; this robot’s ice-shaving function gives you the perfect fine ice consistency in seconds. Layer it with your favorite sweet beans, jellies, and fruits, then top it off with evaporated milk and a scoop of ube ice cream. Whether you’re prepping it for an afternoon merienda or a special celebration, the Xiaomi Smart Cooking Robot makes Halo-Halo an absolute breeze to prepare.
