Hearty Pork Binagoongan with Green Mango Salsa

My love for Binagoongan started when my aunt introduced it to me back when I visited them in the province. It instantly became one of my favorite Filipino classics. This is the reason why I tried to recreate it with my own version when I first started my restaurant Antojos. I’m very pleased to share that this turned out be our best seller, which eventually found its way on local television because of the rave reviews we’re getting. Now I’ve added a bit of zesty sweetness to it –so enjoy my take on one of the most popular Filipino food-Pork Binagoongan with Green Mango Salsa!
