Pork Giniling is a hearty and tasty stew made with ground pork, carrots, potatoes, and fresh tomatoes. It's easy to make in 30 minutes and in cooks in one pan.
In a pan over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
Add ground pork and cook, breaking into pieces with the back of a spoon, until lightly browned. Drain any excess grease.
Add fish sauce and continue to cook for about 1 to 2 minutes.
Add tomatoes and cook, mashing with the back of a spoon, until softened and release juices.
Add water and bring to a boil.
Lower heat, cover, and continue to simmer until meat is tender and fully cooked. Add more water in ½ cup increments as necessary to maintain 1 cup of liquid.
Add potatoes, carrots, and raisins and cook until liquid is mostly reduced, vegetables are tender, and raisins are softened.
Add bell peppers and cook until tender-crisp.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
Notes
This giniling uses fresh tomatoes, so the sauce is thin and light. Stir in one tablespoon of tomato paste if you like a thicker and richer sauce.
