Grilled Pork Monggo Stew

Oven Grilled Pork Monggo Stew

Grilled Pork Monggo Stew is another way of preparing the Visayan dish Grilled Pork Monggo with Banana Blossom. The original recipe calls for grilling the pork in live charcoal. However, I find it really tiring and hot. So the best way to prepare it is by using the oven. It may not give the same smoky flavor as the original but it still makes this recipe extra flavorful.

If you are in the mood of grilling the pork leg, I highly suggest you do it so. But the convenience of using the oven in a hot weather is really a relief. The best cut of meat to use for this dish is the one with fat and skin. Leaner cut of pork will give you a dry and dull chunks of meat.

It’s been a while since we cooked this at home and when my dad asked me what are we going to have for lunch ta dah! Grilled Pork Monggo Stew comes top of my mind.

This dish is a comfort food for me. When I have this I know it’s weekends. And weekends means sleep and rest, right?

Grilled Pork in Monggo Stew is an Ilonggo dish similar to the ginisang munggo. However, instead of using tiny bits of pork meat we are using chopped pork leg. Then, instead of simply sautéing the meat, we grilled it in live charcoal or oven to give it a nice smoky flavor. In addition, chopped banana blossom is added to give it additional flavor and texture.

Where did I learned this recipe? Well, it’s from my dad.
