Start by preparing the ingredients: wash and cut the string beans, okra, tomatoes, onion, and taro into desired sizes.

Cut the string beans by trimming both ends and slicing them to preferred lengths.

Remove the tops and tails of the okra, then slice them in half.

Wash the tomatoes and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on preference.

Peel the taro and cut it into slices, ensuring they are not too thick.

Wash all the cut vegetables and set them aside.

In a pot, turn on the heat and add a small amount of water to prevent sticking.

Add the pork cubes to the pot and let them cook without adding too much water initially.

Once the pork starts to cook, add the tomatoes, onion, and taro to the pot.

Stir the mixture and let it cook for about 30 minutes, checking occasionally.

After 30 minutes, check if the taro is tender; if so, add the string beans and okra.

Stir the pot and cover it again, allowing it to cook until the vegetables are tender.

Once the vegetables are cooked, add the sinigang mix and stir well to combine.

Season with fish sauce and salt to taste, adjusting as necessary.

Finally, add the spinach just before serving, allowing it to wilt in the hot soup.
