Puchero is a type of stew originally from Spain, prepared in Yucatán, Mexico, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Perú, south of Brazil, the Philippines, and Spain, specifically the autonomous communities of Andalusia and the Canary Islands. The Spanish word "puchero" originally meant an earthenware pot, before being extended to mean any vessel, and then the dish cooked in it. The dish is essentially equivalent to the cocido of Spain but lacks colorants (such as paprika) and uses local ingredients which vary from one region to another. In Spain, chickpeas are widely used. Puchero, cocido, and the sancocho eaten in Colombia, Ecuador, República Dominicana, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico are essentially similar dishes.

Philippine puchero
]] In Philippine cuisine, puchero (Spanish: pochero; Tagalog: putsero) is a dish composed of beef chunks stewed with saba bananas (or plantains). The dish may also include potatoes or sweet potatoes, chorizos de Bilbao, bok choy, leeks, chickpeas, cabbage and tomato sauce. Other versions replace beef with chicken or pork. Chicken pochero is cooked with a combination of minced red onion and cloves of garlic, diced large tomatoes, sweet potatoes and chicken, sliced chorizo de Bilbao and bok choy, tomato sauce, cabbage, green beans, green peas, soy sauce and patís.
