Instructions
Throw in all ingredients except for the pork liver, bell pepper, and potatoes together in a pot. Simmer until the pork is cooked and leaning towards tender. Should take about 20 minutes. You may need to add water, just enough to keep the meat in liquid.
When the pork is tender, add the potatoes and the bell pepper. Wait till potatoes done, about 10 minutes. When the potatoes are done, add the pork liver and the raisins. Bring heat to high and cook for another ten. Salt to taste.
Serve with steaming hot rice and a small dish of patis (Filipino fish sauce). Thai fish/shrimp sauce will do as well.
Author's Comments
Menudo is everyday fare in Filipino homes. Its ingredients are readily acquired and even better, cheap. The dish is easily prepared and goes very well with steamed rice.
