How to cook Pork Guisantes
As the name implies, Pork Guisantes is a recipe that combines pork and peas. This Filipino dish can be cooked in different ways.
We used thinly-sliced meat in this recipe but in most cases some people prefer using ground pork. In addition to carrots, potatoes and other vegetables, tomato sauce is also thrown in the mix to add color and flavor.
Of course, it can be hard to ignore that the Pork Gisantes has a few similarities with Afritada and Menudo. This dish has become popular among many Filipino households like those recipes.
This one is also a quick-to-prepare everyday dish and naturally, it’s best consumed with steamed rice. Depending on your taste, you may also want to have some patis (fish sauce) or toyo (soy sauce) for condiment to make the most of your meal.
Because of its mix of meat and vegetables, a single cup serving of Pork Gisantes gives you about 378 calories, 17 g of fat, 15 g of carbs, 1,256 mg of sodium, 1,057mg of potassium and 44 g of protein.
