Filipino Menudo image

Comfort food Filipino style! This is one of my husband's favourite Filipino dishes. I make this in big batches because it freezes well, and it tastes better the longer you keep it. It can stay for up to 2 weeks in the freezer. This can also be cooked in a slow cooker like the usual slow cooker stew.

Time 2h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 kg pork tenderloin, cubed
3 medium potatoes, cubed
2 medium carrots, cubed
1/2 cup raisins
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
500 ml tomato sauce
100 g liver spread (originally, we use fresh pork liver but since it's very difficult to find a good liver, I substitute)
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
50 g grated romano cheese (Parmesan is also good)
2 bay leaves
1 cup Sprite (Yes, Sprite.)
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 lemon, zest of, only
ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all marinade ingredients. Divide the marinade in halves. Save half. Add pork cubes on the other half with the bay leaf and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove pork from the marinade, drip dry.
  • Sauté garlic and onion, add pork and the unused half of the marinade and bay leaf, simmer uncovered, reduce the liquid to half.
  • Add fresh pork liver if you prefer the fresh ingredient, cover and cook.
  • Add tomato sauce, liver paste (if this is what you're using), carrots, potatoes and raisins, simmer stirring occasionally.
  • Add peppers and adjust the seasoning.
  • Add the grated cheese, let it melt, stir and distribute evenly. Serve hot.
