Greetings Foodies Bee Hive!
Today, I am going to introduce to you Pork Sinigang, it is one of the most popular and all-time favorite comfort food in my country. Sinigang is famously characterized by its sour taste and commonly considered as a comfort food specifically during the rainy season.
Sinigang has many variants. In the absence of Pork, you can use fish or prawns as a substitute and cooked exactly the same.
Sinigang has also many vegetable combinations, it can be combined with Mustard and Taro (root), or it can be combined with Water Spinach and Radish, or it can be combined with Mustard and Radish, or it can be combined with Mustard and String Beans. If you ask me I prefer pork sinigang combined with Mustard and Taro and the variant that I am going to cook for today is the one with Mustard, Radish, String Beans, and taro.
