Ginisang Munggo/Green Beans

Munggo or Green Beans, I remember my neighbor back home, this is what she cooks every Friday i guess until now. I don't really eat munggo, I just usually have its sauce or soup. People cooks it differently, some got a bit of sauce, some cooks it just like a soup. Since this is one of my husband's favorite food, I tried to make my own version of it. Timesaver, simple yet a very tasty one. Here's the recipe...

1/4 Green Beans (munggo)
1/2 kg pork ribs/ pata / etc. (any meat bones you like)
3 cups water (depends on the qty of green beans
1-2 pcs Knorr Chicken cube
1 bundle Alukbati white (Australian spinach) or any green leafy vegetables you want
3 cloves garlic
1 small onion
1 Tbs cooking oil

Put the washed green beans and pork ribs + the small onion (chopped) with the 3C of water and Knorr chicken cube in the pressure cooker, bring into boil about 15 minutes or just about its sauce thickens a bit. Cool it down. In a separate pan, saute garlic and put the Australian spinach. Stir it not more than 2 minutes. Put the vegetables on top of your cooked green beans when serving.

Note: if no pressure cooker, bring it to boil until the meat is tender. Maybe 15 minutes longer.
Pressure cooker is a big help, it saves a lot of time. It's worth the buy.

I will try to post its pix, next time i cook it.
