I'm not really here to tell a story but just to play with words for my title. Pochero is among my well loved meat and vegetable combo dishes. Its the mix of very soft meat that almost melts in your mouth plus the meaty sweet sabaw resulting from the combination of the pork and the vegetables (especially the bananas) that often makes my day.
A very versatile dish that can be prepared even very simple and available ingredients or prepare it as lavish as you want. Probably the simplest one is known as KBS or kamote (leaves), baboy and saging (saba). Just tenderize the meat by boiling with some seasonings then add banana slices. Add kamote leaves then off with the stove. Other variation would involve stir frying/sauteing the pork first with garlic, onions and tomatoes then adding water and bring it to a boil until tender.
This one I would is almost pochero since it doesn't have saging na saba but just kamote.
