Afritada (afritadang baboy) is usually made with key ingredients such as pork or chicken. It is cooked with tomato sauce, potatoes, and bell peppers. The meat is often cut into cubes which are larger than menudo cuts. The sauce is relatively thick in comparison to other Filipino recipes. It is usually served at fiestas or social gatherings or can simply be one of everyday ulam.
