I enjoyed having Ginataang Langka with Pork for lunch. The combination of flavors was really good and the spice from the chili pepper made it even better. There is no other way to eat this but with warm steamed white rice. I suggest that you control your rice intake because this yummy spicy dish can make you eat without you consciously noticing.

Ginataang Langka with Pork Recipe

I am thankful that there are canned unripe jackfruits nowadays in the Asian groceries and Filipino stores. Just like canned coconut milk, both of them come-in handy anytime you need them.

Ginataang Langka with Pork is best if the pork is as tender as it can be. Simmering the pork in coconut milk for several minutes can do this. Do not be afraid to add a cup or more of water to the coconut milk if you think that the pork is not tender enough. The water will eventually evaporate and you will still get that thick creamy coconut sauce.

I indicated in the recipe below that the chili pepper is an optional ingredient. Please do not be obliged to add the peppers if you are not able to handle spicy foods. Ginataang Langka with pork will still be delicious even without it.

Try this Ginataang Langka with Pork Recipe. Enjoy!

      Not for this dish. Matamis kasi ang ripe jackfruit. It is meant more for desserts. Ginataang bilo-bilo is a good example. Here is the link https://panlasangpinoy.com/2014/08/27/ginataang-bilo-bilo-langka-recipe/

      Hello Pol. Did you use fresh unripe jackfruit or the ones in can? Unripe jackfruits can be bitter sometimes, especially when fresh. You can decrease the bitter taste by soaking the sliced jackfruit in water for 1 to 2 hours. You can also mix a teaspoon of salt in the water.

    Ginataang langka is one of my favorite dish, since I am a bicolano who loves gata I want to try your version, looks fabulous and yummy.
    I have a question, does it applies to adding shrimp instead of pork or at least chicken cutlets since I’m not a meat eater?
    Loves your website…learn a lot, and love to try it all…thanks to my sister who shared me all these thru email.
    Thank you and more power.

      Hi Malouh, it is nice to hear from you.

      You can use shrimp or chicken as a substitute for pork. If you decide to use shrimp, I recommend adding it towards the last part so that the shrimp won’t get overcooked.
