Puerco Con Chorizo (Pork with Chorizo)

Derived from the Spanish menudo, this Filipino version sets it apart with a bit of Middle Eastern twist by adding raisins, thus making this dish a bit sweeter.

Ingredients:
     1 kg. pork butt (cut into 1 in. cubes)
     2 pcs. Spanish chorizo, sliced
     1 small box of raisins
     2 potatoes (cut into 1 in. cubes)
     1 red bell pepper, sliced julienne
     1 large carrot (cut into 3/4 inch cubes)
     5 cloves of garlic, diced
     1/2 cup olive oil
     2 to 3 tblspns tomato sauce or ketchup
     2 cups of white wine
     salt & pepper

Recipe:
In a pot, heat olive oil. After a minute, add garlic and chorizo and stir for another minute. Add the pork until brown, then add the white wine and bring the heat to low. Simmer the meat (approx. 30 mins.) until tender while adding some water. Then add the rest of the ingredients until both vegetables and meat are tender. Add salt and pepper to taste. You may add some grated parmesan cheese if you want tthe taste a bit sharper. Enjoy!
