Pork Adobong Sitaw

Another great Filipino adobo recipe, this time with pork and long beans. There are a couple of options you can use for the protein. Either pork shoulder or pork belly work well with this recipe. I would not recommend using pork loin or tenderloin. They are too lean and will be tough if cooked for an hour.
Long beans are very similar to green beans except they are really long and a lot firmer. They are meant to have a slight crunch to them when cooked. If you can't find long beans, substitute green beans; just make sure to not overcook the green beans at the end. Cook them for 5 minutes instead of 10.
