Hardinera (Quezon Province Meatloaf)

I was browsing the net for yummy food recipes when I stumbled upon this Hardinera, a famous meatloaf dish from the Quezon province. According to panlasangpinoy.com, hardinera is not that different from pork menudo. But I think the final product looks the same as the embutido. Hmmm, looks really yummy yummy that I'm so excited to share this special dish recipe, the Hardinera (Quezon Province Meatloaf) from panlasangpinoy.com.

  1. In a cooking pot, add cooking oil and sauté garlic and onions.
  2. Add the diced pork and cook for 3 to 5 minutes.

  9. Cover the whole llanera with aluminum foil.
  10. Pour at least 6 cups of water in the steamer. Arrange the containers in the steamer and steam for 50 minutes.
  11. Remove the steamed mixture from the llanera and transfer to a serving plate.
