Pork and Jackfruit Sinigang or Sinigang na Baboy at Langka is another Ilonggo dish my dad always cooked on weekends. The recipe is the same with sinigang na baboy but instead of adding different vegetables he will just add chopped young jackfruit.
The good thing about this dish is, it is so easy to prepare. You don’t need to chopped up different ingredients as this recipe requires very few. Another things is, this dish is really affordable. With the prices of vegetables go up and down right now and some of your family members not eating all the vegetables in a sinigang dish, this is a must try.
Having a dad coming from the Visayas region and a mom from south of Luzon is a great and yummy threat. You get to taste their native dishes or the dishes they used to grew up with.
This dish is best served with chili calamansi patis mixture or simply calamansi patis mixture as dipping sauce, if you don’t want the spicy kick. Patis just makes everything goes delicious, right?
Tips
To thoroughly clean the pork ribs wash it several time and boil it for 15 minutes. Discard the water and rinse it with clean water. Then, pour the 4 cups of water and simmer it until tender.
This Pork and Jackfruit Sinigang recipe is a versatile dish. You can replace the pork ribs with pork belly if you want that fatty deliciousness and that meaty pork meat.
You can also reduce the quantity of the pork and add more jackfruit if you want a more vegetable dish. Then, pair it with fried fish. I bet that will also be delicious.
