Craving for a delicious and traditional Filipino putahe (dish)? Mr. Public Service Kuya Daniel Razon got you covered!

Presenting “Menudo ni Kuya”, Kuya Daniel showed his own version of the traditional stew dish that is made with sliced pork and calf’s liver in tomato sauce.

Locally called ginamay in Cebu, menudo is almost always present in the dining table of every Filipino family during gatherings, birthday parties, and the likes. It is a favorite local dish with different variations depending on your province in the country. This time around, Kuya Daniel showed his own version of menudo.

“Menudo is rich in protein and phosphorus,” Kuya Daniel said, and probably one of the reasons why it is one of the most served dishes for celebrations with its appetizing ingredients.

“Protein builds, maintains, and replaces the tissues in our body. It has an essential role on the functioning of the skeletal muscles and the heart,” added Kuya Daniel on the health benefits of protein.

Kuya Daniel cooked his pork menudo during the Cook Eat Right segment of the morning show Good Morning Kuya being aired by UNTV.
