Pork Guisantes Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Pork Guisantes is a tomato base pork stew. This recipe is similar to Pork Menudo and Pork Afritada, but some ingredients vary. It is also sometimes referred to as pork with green peas in tomato sauce.

I use tomato sauce to make this dish back in the days. I only started having canned diced tomatoes a few years ago – when I ran out of tomato sauce. I was in the middle of the cooking process when I realized that I already consumed the last can of tomato sauce for the Pinoy Spaghetti that I made a day before. It was a good thing that I was able to find a can of diced tomatoes sitting in the pantry. The Pork Guisantes dish that I made that day had a fresher flavor. That discovery made me use canned diced tomatoes (or fresh diced tomatoes) ever since.

This is a typical everyday dish fit for lunch or dinner. It is best served with hot steamed rice.

I get a lot of feedback regarding the lack of serving size information. Thanks for informing me. I will include the serving sizes on all recipes starting from this post. I will update the others  when I get the chance. This recipe is good for 5 to 6 persons.

    Hi Lulu,
    Well you live in Holland there’s probably a lot of good beef, just boil some beef bones and you have beef stock, or if you have a filipino store near you look for beef cubes.

    Hi Vanjo,

    I noticed something very interesting that is most of these dishes such as Pochero, Afritada, Asado, Mechado, Adobo, and maybe Caldereta. Are Spanish influenced dishes. It’s just that we just adapted those dishes and then moved it up a notch I guess. Also I noticed that in Filipino cooking we don’t use to much herbs and spices aside from salt and pepper and maybe garlic if you want to call garlic an herb. Maybe it is because in Filipino cooking most people who learned this dishes from their relatives or had had dishes passed down to them by generation to generation would like to keep the dish as simple as possible.

    Whiggy, you can use boneless chicken breasts to replace the pork. Also, use chicken broth instead of beef broth.

    Hi,
    I’m from Greece and I think your site is great I use alot of the recipes Thanks!!
    This dish is very similar to a greek dish I make at least twice a month for my family with a few differences: instead of pork I use a little bacon some diced potatoes and a little dill if you like. That’s it! I will definetly try it with the pork even though 1 day of no meat in a meal is alot better!! Thanks again for your recipes!!! Keep ’em coming!
