Pork and Chicken Curry

Pork and Chicken Curry. I first had this dish during the time when I was working in Makati, Pasong Tamo area we used to take our lunch at neighborhood karinderias on the area. The best seller of one the karinderia was the curry dish of mixed pork and chicken.

The dish meat cuts are whole pork chops or chicken legs for easier servings. Each serving is a choice of either one. The blend of pork and chicken flavors is enhanced by the curry spices and coconut milk it was way better compared to the regular chicken curry.
