I confuse Filipino Menudo and Mechado all the time. Grandma says the size of the meat is smaller. (?) This one has raisins? Idk. It’s delicious. That’s the most important part. We store it in the fridge for a quick meal :)

Steps

  1. 1

    Sauté the shit out of the first 3 ingredients in a pan of oil on medium heat. Tomatoes should be wilted, onions translucent, and fragrant. This takes a good 6-7 mins.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, marinate the pork butt in soy sauce. Put just enough to coat all the meat. See grandpa below:

When I was younger, my Mom would make me her little sous chef. “Peel the shrimp, chop the onions, cut the vegetables!” When Grandma moved in, Mom stopped cooking and I continued to be the sous chef in the kitchen. Grandma is the cooking EXPERT. Here are my notes!
