For today’s recipe, I am sharing with you my favorite porkafritada dish. It’s made with chicken or pork, along with potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers simmered in a combination of tomato sauce and water until they’re tender
While it can boost your health and fight nutrient deficiencies, consuming large servings of pork liver might increase your risk of an accidental nutrient overdose, so you should consume it in moderation
Similar to afritada, asado, mechado and menudo, it uses tomato sauce as the base. Pork Giniling Menudo, one of my most favorite turo-turo recipes I have grown up eating with
Menudo, afritada, calderata and mechado all share the same mode of preparation and the same base of onions, garlic and tomatoes but by changing up other ingredients, these dishes are similar yet with their own distinct set of flavors and textures
This garlicky Pinoy dish is Spanish-influenced just like the other famous Filipino dishes such as Brazo de Mercedes, Adobo, Callos, Menudo, Escabeche, Lengua Estofado, Igado, Afritada, Mechado, and Paella
This beef afritada is pretty much the same in preparation as the chicken and pork versions wherein the meat is braised in tomato sauce along with chunks of potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers
