Pork Nilaga: All In One Weekend Dish


          We prefer to stay at home during weekends. We love spending time together in the dining table, sharing stories and laughing together.

          We only opt to eat out when we need to do a lot of errands during weekends.

          Staying at home for a meal is so much better since we can just snooze after. We also prefer to have a private and quiet family meal.

          Now let us cook one of our favorite weekend dish!


Ingredients:

1 kg. pork, cubed
5 garlic cloves
1 medium cabbage quartered
1 cup pechay
1 cup string beans
2 medium potatoes peeled and cubed
4 pieces ripe saba banana sliced in half crosswise
6 to 8 cups beef or pork broth
1 teaspoon whole peppercorn
Salt to taste
3 tablespoons cooking oil

Cooking Time!

  1. Heat the cooking oil in a pot. Saute the onion.
  2. Add the whole pepper corn.
  3. Put-in the pork. Cook until the color turns light brown (about 3 to 5 minutes).
