Substitutes

• Pork chunks – Any pork cuts will do as long as it is not thicker than 1 inch. Otherwise, it will require longer cooking time.
• French-cut green beans – I suggest using fresh string beans (sitaw) if you have them available. I think it is the best substitute for French-cut beans but, you would have to cook it longer.
• Pork stock or broth – It can be replaced with pork cubes or granules.

Feel free to add more spices if you want. The sauce of this dish is thick, you have room for more.
