Menudo with Baked Beans

Menudo with Baked Beans, I heard a lot about this dish. This version of menudo uses baked beans as extender. For my version I did not add hotdog I though it is no longer necessary with all those baked beans. 

Cooking is basically the same with the usual menudo but instead of thickening the sauce with cornstarch, just add the baked beans at the last minute of cooking.

Another unusual ingredient is the addition of green peas. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

1/2 kilo pork, cut into small cubes
1/4 kilo pork liver, cut into small cubes
1 big can baked beans
1 medium size red bell pepper, diced
1 large size potato, cut into small cubes
1 medium size carrot, cut into small cubes
1/2 cup green beans, pre-cooked
1 medium size, chopped
1/2 head garlic, chopped
2-3 pcs. bay leaf
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup raisin
1 tsp. sugar
salt and pepper
cooking oil

Cooking procedure:

In a sauce pan sauté garlic and onion, add in pork and stir cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add pork liver and stir cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add soy sauce, tomato sauce and bay leaf stir cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 to 3 cups of water bring to a boil and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender, add more water as necessary. Add in potato, carrot and sugar simmer for another 5 to 8 minutes or until potato are cooked and most of the liquid has evaporated. Add in the baked beans, raisins, green peas and bell pepper, season with salt and pepper and cook for another minute. Serve with rice.
