Estofadong Baboy or Pork Estofado is a dish wherein cubed pork is stewed in soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic. This resembles the popular Filipino pork adobo, except that this dish makes use of a generous amount of brown sugar to make it sweeter. Pan-fried carrots and saba banana are also added into the dish.

Estofadong Baboy

The secret to a good pork estofado has always something to do with the quality and taste of the meat. It should tender and flavorful. This can be achieved by marinating the pork in adobo-like seasonings composed of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and crushed peppercorn for at least 3 hours. I usually do it longer, even overnight if I want my dish to be very tasty.

I think that carrots and banana add more value to this dish. I suggest that you follow the exact recipe even if you can do without these ingredients.
