No Filipino home is complete without at least one day in a month (or even a week!) when pork sinigang is cooked for a meal with the family. We Filipinos love our Sinigang sa Sampalok, and surely, we don’t get tired of it easily. But sometimes, it’s quite nice to try out something different, like a new take on a well-loved classic—and this is where Pork Sinigang sa Kamias comes in!
Pork Sinigang sa Kamias still has that same comforting warmth that we love about this classic dish that instantly makes us feel like we’re home. Pork is simmered low and slow to make it soft and tender, while fresh kamias adds a brighter, fruitier sourness that’s distinctly different from the usual sampalok-based sinigang. Add in your favorite sinigang vegetables like kangkong, sitaw, labanos and gabi, and you’ve got a hearty bowl of soup that calls for a steaming cup of rice—patis with siling haba, optional.
