Abitsuelas Guisado

This dish is somehow popular in the Philippines because it is one of the easiest and quickest dish to cook and the ingredients are also simple, easy and cheap to buy which is affordable for all the people who are really in a tight budget.

I prepared this dish last night for our dinner. Try it! :)

2 tablespoons oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup sliced onions
1/2 cup sliced tomatoes
1/2 cup ground pork
1 carrot, sliced
1/4 kilo abitsuelas or baguio string beans, cut into 1" lengths
1 cup water
pork bouillon
patis or salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a skillet. Saute garlic, onions and tomatoes. Add pork and cook until browned. Add the carrots and abitsuelas and the pork bouillon. Add water. Let simmer and cook until abitsuelas and carrots are tender but not overcooked. Season to taste.


* You can add shrimps if you want to.
