Minsang’s Kitchen | Filipino Home Cooking at its Finest

Introduction
Pork Afritada, or Afritadang Baboy, is a hearty and tangy Filipino stew that warms the soul with its rich tomato-based sauce, tender pork, and colorful vegetables. This classic lutong bahay (home-cooked) dish is beloved across the Philippines for its bold flavors, sweet-and-savory notes, and comforting aroma. Perfect with steamed rice, it’s a staple on family tables and easy enough for any home cook to master. Join me as I share my tried-and-true recipe from Minang’s Kitchen!

📝 Ingredients (Serves 4-6)

• 500 grams pork kasim (pork shoulder, cut into 1.5-inch cubes)
• 5 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 large white onion (chopped)
• 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
• 1 medium green bell pepper (sliced)
• 1 medium carrot (cubed)
• 1 large potato (cubed)
• 1/4 cup green peas (fresh or frozen)
• 2 bay leaves
• 5-6 tbsp cooking oil
• 1/2 cup tomato sauce
• 2 tsp soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 pork cube (or 1 tsp Knorr pork powder)
• 2 ½ tsp sugar

👨‍🍳 How to Cook Pork Afritada: Step-by-Step

Step 1: Sear the Pork

1. Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
2. Add pork kasim and sear until golden brown (about 5 minutes per side).
3. Remove pork and set aside.

Step 2: Sauté Aromatics

1. In the same pot, sauté minced garlic and chopped onion until fragrant (2 minutes).
2. Return pork to the pot and mix well.

Step 3: Add Sauce and Liquids

1. Pour in tomato sauce and soy sauce. Stir to combine.
2. Add pork cube, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Mix thoroughly.
3. Pour in 3 cups of water and bring to a boil.
4. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes until pork is tender.

Step 4: Add Vegetables

1. Add carrots and potatoes. Simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Stir in bell peppers and green peas. Cook for 5–7 minutes until veggies are crisp-tender.
3. Adjust seasoning (add more salt/sugar if needed).
4. If sauce is too thick, add up to ½ cup more water.

Step 5: Serve!

Garnish with spring onions (optional). Serve hot over steamed rice. 🍚✨

💡 Pro Tips from Minang

• Pork Alternatives: Use pork belly for richer flavor or chicken for Afritadang Manok.
• Make it Spicy: Add 1–2 sliced chilies (siling labuyo) for a fiery kick!
• Extra Umami: Stir in 1 tbsp oyster sauce during the final simmer.
• Storage: Keeps in the fridge for 3 days or freezes for 1 month. Flavors deepen overnight!

❤️ Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This version balances malasa (salty), matamis (sweet), and maasim (sour) with a velvety tomato sauce. The pork melts in your mouth, while the veggies add color and crunch. It’s the ultimate lutong bahay comfort food!
