Ingredients

  • 1 kg Pork shoulders cut into chunks
  • 200 gr Pork liver cut into cubes
  • 1 bulb Garlic crushed and chopped
  • 2 Onions cut
  • 2 Tomatoes cut
  • 1 Carrot cubed
  • 1 Potatoe cubed
  • ½ Bell pepper cut
  • ⅓ cup Tomato sauce
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 tbsp Fish sauce (Optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to season
  • 3 tbsp Cooking oil

Instructions

  • Put oil in a heated pan.
  • Saute the garlic under medium heat.
  • When the garlic turns golden, put in the onions.

  • Just when the liver changes color, put in the water and the tomato sauce.
  • Add in the carrots and potatoes.
