Pochero

Pork Pochero is my favorite ultimate comfort food! Chockful of tender, pork ribs, vegetables and rich tomato sauce, this Filipino stew is hearty, flavorful and perfect for cold weather.

Pochero (Puchero) is another great dish that we inherited from the Spanish. It is a stew of meat, vegetable, root crops and legumes and was originally considered as peasant stew (in Andalusia). This is because the meat that was usually used were from cheapest (fatty) cuts from a pig, cow, and chicken and with vegetables that were in season.
