- 1 piece tomato cubed

- 2 pieces potato cubed
- 3 pieces bay leaves
- 1 piece onion minced
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 cups beef broth
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Heat oil in a pot. Sauté onion and garlic.
Add pork when onion softens. Continue to cook until light brown.
Add tomato sauce. Pour pork broth. Let boil.
Add bay leaves. Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
Add hotdog, carrot and potato. Cook for 12 minutes.
Add green peas. Cook for 5 minutes.
Season with salt and ground black pepper.
- Spice level - No heat here! You don’t have to avoid this dish if you are trying to save your taste buds from something too spicy.
- Sweetness level - This generally isn’t a sweet dish, but you may get hints of that flavor from the hotdogs. Otherwise, this is mostly savory!
- Pork - I definitely love the pork in this dish, but you can actually make this without red meat. I invite you to try chicken as an alternative. A vegan option would be tofu!
