Pork Giniling Kaldereta is a simple dish that you can make for lunch or dinner. If you like pork giniling and if you are a fan of kaldereta at the same time, this recipe is perfect for you. This dish is a crossover of these dishes. It can be eaten with plain white rice or with pandesal.
I just had this dish for dinner tonight and I really enjoyed it. I plan to save the leftovers for tomorrow. I am thinking of making meat rolls and this will be a perfect filling.
You will notice that I did not use potato in this recipe. It is a matter of preference on my end. This means that you can add potato if you like. 1 large baking potato (sliced into cubes) is enough. Add it along with the carrots if you decide to have it.
Follow the recipe below and you should be on the right track. By the way, I had a piece of pork cube in the recipe. This helps improve the flavor. Most of you won’t have this ingredient. In this case, use beef cube or beef powder; you can also use beef broth. If using beef broth, add ½ cup of broth and omit the water.
