Meal Procedure
- In a pan or pot over medium heat, add the vegetable oil.
- Add the pork pieces and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the onion and garlic, and cook until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the baguio beans and chicharo, and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until slightly softened.
- In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, and black pepper.
- Add the sauce mixture to the pan with the pork and vegetables.
