RECIPE: Pork Binagoongan

I enjoy eating binagoongan because I like the taste. This dish is best eaten with steamed rice.  My hubby is not a fan of foods cooked with bagoong for his family comes from Bicol and He likes food cooked in Coconut (gata).  But he said he likes what I cooked, i guess he has no choice but to eat what i serve harharhar.

 Here is my personal recipe of pork binagoongan or binagoongang baboy which is a favorite Filipino dish.
