TIPS FOR PORK STEW

1. If you want a richer and more substantial recipe, you can cook the meat with potatoes cut into quarters, rice, or spaghetti.

2. Cook the meat over low heat if you want the pork bites to be more tender, juicy and flavorful.

3. If you have any leftovers or want to save the recipe for later, store the pork stew in the refrigerator in an airtight container (before storing in the refrigerator, let the stew cool completely). You can store this recipe in the refrigerator for up to 2 to 3 days.
