Ginisang Batong

In my garden today I planted at least 5 plants of “batong” or long beans. Because I do really like this kind of vegetable. Two year ago, I planted the batong or sitaw and in this picture that is the fruit of my labor.

What I did is prepare a garlic and onion. Cut in cubes the pork. Cut in short length the sitaw or batong. In a pan, I put a little of oil, then sauted the onion and garlic. Then put the cube pork, when it was already a little brown where you can’t see a reddish meat, mixed the sitaw or batong put a little water. Then seasoned with salt and if you like pepper you can put it too. Cover it up and let it simmer for a while till both the meat and the sitaw are tender but the sitaw should remain green.
