• Prepare all your ingredients before starting. Chop all vegetables into uniform sizes - about 1-inch cubes for potatoes, ½-inch for carrots, and similar-sized pieces for bell peppers.
• Set your stove to medium heat (katamtamang init, 350°F/175°C). Pour oil into a large pan or kawali. Wait until the oil is hot but not smoking (Initin ang kawali sa katamtamang init).
• Add your chopped onions and minced garlic to the hot oil. Cook them until the onions become clear and soft, about 2-3 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning (Igisa ang sibuyas at bawang).
• Increase heat to medium-high (375°F/190°C). Add the ground pork to the pan. Break up the meat into small pieces using your sandok or wooden spoon. Cook until the meat turns light brown, about 8-10 minutes.
• Pour in the fish sauce and continue cooking for 2 minutes, stirring to distribute the flavor (Ilagay ang patis at haluing mabuti).
• Add the diced tomatoes to the pan. Cook them until they become soft and release their juices, pressing them gently with your spoon (Ilagay ang kamatis at lutuin hanggang lumambot).
• Pour in the water and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low (300°F/150°C) (Ilagay ang tubig at pakuluin. Pababain ang init kapag kumukulo na).
• Add the cubed potatoes, carrots, and raisins to the pan. Cover and let simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork (Ilagay ang patatas, carrot at pasas. Takpan at palambutin).
• When the potatoes and carrots are almost tender, add the diced bell peppers. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers are crisp-tender (Ilagay ang mga siling pangsigang kapag malambot na ang patatas at carrot).
• Taste your dish and season with salt and pepper as needed. If the sauce is too thin, simmer uncovered for a few more minutes until it thickens to your liking (Timplahan ng asin at paminta. Kung malabnaw ang sarsa, pakuluan ng hindi nakatakip).
• Turn off the heat and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to settle and the sauce to thicken slightly.
• Serve hot over steaming white rice (Ihain na mainit kasama ng kanin).

For best results (Para sa pinakamasarap na luto):

• Make sure your ground pork is well-browned before adding other ingredients
• Keep your vegetables uniformly sized for even cooking
• Don't overcook the bell peppers - they should remain slightly crisp
• Let the dish rest before serving to allow flavors to meld
