Patatim my mother made

Patatim’s is the main ingredients are similar to pork adobo or chicken Adobo except that some includes the Banana blossoms. To be honest, I don’t know the difference between having it and not having of it. Since that ingredient is very rare to find, I cooked it without it. Others of the use Pork Braised Legs and some are the hind legs. For this particular moment, I used the hind legs.
