Giniling

Giniling is a Filipino dish of pork mince, carrots, potatoes and green peas cooked in chopped tomatoes and its natural juices.

Giniling is a Tagalog word for “Ground” or “Minced” and that is the main ingredient in this humble yet delicious dish, made with minced pork alongside other vegetables that were chopped into small pieces like carrots, potatoes and green peas. If the Americans have chilli then the Filipinos have this, almost similar in concept where minced meat is cooked in tomatoes with other ingredients which is comparable to texture like potatoes instead of beans. This is quite a staple back home due to it easy preparation, just pair it with rice then your all good to go.
