Carioca

Carioca as how Caviteños call it or more commonly called as "Giniling" by Filipinos is made of ground pork, potatoes, green peas and bell pepper. It is not only a viand but it is also a favorite bread filling among Caviteños.



Ingredients:
1 lb ground pork
4 medium potatoes, 1/4 inch cubes
1 small can green peas, drained
1 small red bell pepper, finely-sliced
5 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium onion, finely-sliced
1 tbsp oil
fresh ground pepper
salt and pepper
soy sauce
achuete oil (optional)

Procedure:

Saute onion & garlic in oil. Add pork & brown, making sure to separate ground pork thoroughly. Add enough soy sauce, cover & let simmer over med-heat/flame for 10 mins. Add potatoes & red bell pepper. Mix & cook for another 10 mins. Add canned green peas and enough achuete oil to color. Salt and pepper to taste.

  2. Thank you so much, been looking for this recipe, my Auntie cooked this but we didn’t have the recipe, we love it with bread. This is usually served when there is a wake.
