This dish is simple to make. However, you will need to prepare the mung beans ahead of time. This local bean dish is not only nutritious, it's also good and easy to whip up! Ginisang monggo is a delicious stew that is usually incorporated with pork to give its broth a meatier flavor.

Steps to make Pork Monggo:
  1. In a pot, boil washed mung beans in water (make sure beans are covered in water, add more whenever necessary to avoid burning) for 30-45 minutes or until soft/cooked. Set aside.
  2. Heat pan in oil and add garlic and onion. Cook until garlic is light golden brown and onion is translucent. Add tomatoes and dried shrimp cook for about 2-3 minutes.Add ampalaya/bitter melon or gourd that was soaked in hot water to remove bitterness (make sure to rinse and remove water from ampalaya). Set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add pork and cook for about 20-30 minutes or until all sides have browned. If the cut pork has fat, I like making sure the fat part is toasted to make it crunchy. Or just throw the pork in the air fryer to cook.
  4. Add cooked pork, garlic, onions, ampalaya/bittermelon, tomatoes, dried shrimp and pork cube to the pot with the cooked monggo beans and bring to a boil. Add fish sauce, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Turn the heat off. Add malunggay leaves and cover pot for another 5 minutes to let the residual heat cook the leaves.
  5. Serve with chicharon or tinapa flakes on top and with a side of steamed white rice.

Thinly sliced pork are quicker to cook and gets tender easily. While coconut milk and seasonings helped make the dish creamy and tasty, the pork cube did a great job in bringing out the pork flavor. It was right on the spot. Try this Ginataang Monggo with Pork Recipe. Let me know what you think.
