Nilaga is a traditional Filipino food.  There are many ways to cook nilaga as much as the many variations of the meat used for this dish such that ingredients vary when chicken is used as compared to beef or pork.

This version of pork nilaga is from Southern Tagalog, provinces like Batangas, Laguna and Mindoro use saba instead of potato or gabi or kamote.  Petchay tagalog is also used instead of cabbage (repolyo in Filipino) or Chinese petchay.
