Pork Ginataan with Squash and String Beans
Pork Ginataan with Squash and String Beans is a rich and delicious Filipino dish that makes use of pork, coconut milk, and vegetables such as squash and string beans. This recipe has many variations. You can do this with other types of meat and even with seafood such as crab. In fact, Ginataang Sitaw at Kalabasa with Crab is one version that I enjoy eating.
I love this dish because it is very tasty and delicious. The only thing that bothers me is the certainty that I will always overeat when this dish is served because it’s richness and flavor do not deserve just a cup of rice — maybe 2 or just a little bit over it.
