One thought on “PORK AFRITADA”

  1. This was a great recipe. Born in the USA and hear my parents speak tagalog, I was able to understand tagalog on the you tube video. I did the recipe as is except used patis to season after it was cooked. The potatoes was a natural thickener to the stew. It tasted great and my husband and son really enjoyed the pork apritada. Thanks for the recipe and plan on trying more from your recipe list. Great website!
