Ingredients:

2	lbs	pork
2	lbs	clams
2	tbsp	cooking oil
2	tsp	flour
2	med	onions, cut into rings
1	cup	white wine
2	large	tomatoes, peeled
2	tsp	tomato paste
1	tsp	chopped garlic
	x	salt and pepper
	x	laurel leaf

Procedures:

1	Wash the clams in a large basin, then drain. Fill up the basin with salted water, then leave the clams immersed in the basin.
2	Slice peeled tomatoes into quarters. Remove seeds, then cut roughly to make ?inch cubes.
3	Cut the pork into big cubes, then sprinkle flour over the pork.
4	In a pressure cooker, saute the pork cubes in cooking oil for about 3 minutes.
5	Add the sliced onion and cook for 2 minutes more.
6	Add wine, tomato paste, tomato cubes, chopped garlic and a laurel leaf. Season with salt and pepper. Lessen the salt because when the clams are added, it will add to the saltiness.
7	Heat until the wine comes to a boil, then close and pressure cook for about 45 minutes.
8	Remove the cover. Drain clams, then add them to the stew. Without replacing the cover, let the clams cook with the stew over medium for about 5-7 minutes more - until the clams open.
9	Transfer to a serving dish, then serve with steamed rice.
