Menudong Baboy (Pork Menudo via Instant Pot)
Menudo (not the Ricky Martin boy band during the ‘80’s) is one dish that almost every Filipino household makes. It is a stew made of pork, potatoes and tomato sauce. Then other ingredients are added such as sliced hotdogs, chickpeas, green peas, pork liver and raisins depending on who is cooking. My mom would just make this basic recipe because I was very picky growing up.
