HISTORY 
This Filipino Pork Menudo Recipe is what I use for special occasions. It is the same recipe that we keep on using year after year for Noche Buena. Since this dish is my favorite, I have tried to make many different versions and this is what I like best.

This time, my eldest daughter, Dianne, helped me cook this dish. She asked me to teach her how to cook this version because she likes it too and she wanted to try cooking this in her college apartment. I am glad that all my kids are interested in cooking. I think that this is one of my accomplishments as a dad, to be able to make my children appreciate the art of cooking and learn how to cook — especially Filipino dishes.

Filipino Pork Menudo has a bit of preparation compared to regular Pinoy pork stews. The potato and carrot needs to be prepared by pan-frying. I also saute the liver in ground ginger to make it less gamey. This is a proven method that can make non-liver fans start to eat it. The actual cooking starts once these ingredients are ready.

INGREDIENTS 
▢2 lbs. pork shoulder sliced into small cubes
▢1 piece Knorr Pork Cube
▢4 ounces pork liver cubed
▢1 piece baking potato cubed
▢3 pieces hotdogs sliced crosswise into thin pieces
▢1 can tomato sauce 8 oz.
▢1 piece carrot cubed
▢1/2 cup raisins
▢2 pieces dried bay leaves
▢2 tablespoons soy sauce
▢1 teaspoon ground ginger
▢1 piece yellow onion chopped
▢4 cloves garlic crushed
▢3 tablespoons cooking oil
▢2 to 4 cups water
▢Salt

Tinolang Isda

Charisse Calubag Pagalan Grade 11 Humss - Princess Urduja Region 16 History Tinolang Isda is a fish soup made with ginger, garlic, onions, and green papaya. It's a comforting dish that's perfect for those who want a light and healthy meal. This recipe reminds me so much of my family back in the Philippines. I used to live in a coastal town in the southern part of Cebu, “Dalaguete” in particular. Our house was close to the beach; you can actually hear the sea waves lashing against the shore during monsoon seasons and smell the salty air all year round. I remembered having some of our fishermen friends and relatives came over to our house in the mornings bringing with them fresh catch of the day. Sometimes, my dad will meet them at the beach during sunrise just as they were returning home from the fishing trip and buy kilos of fish. Some of those he bought were made into fish tinola or “tinuwa” or “tuwa” in my native Cebuano dialect. A piping hot tinolang isda with wa...
