Sisig

Filipino Sisig is a popular sizzling stir-fry dish known for its bold flavors and unique texture. The main ingredients include chopped pork, typically made from the face, ears, and belly, combined with onions, garlic, and chili peppers. To prepare, the pork is first boiled to tenderize, then grilled to impart a smoky aroma before being finely chopped. This chopped pork is then stir-fried together with sautéed onions, garlic, and chili peppers, creating a savory and spicy base. The dish is seasoned with soy sauce and calamansi juice, which add a tangy and salty depth to the flavor. For those who prefer a creamier texture, mayonnaise is sometimes added as an optional ingredient, enhancing the richness of the dish. Served sizzling hot, Filipino Sisig is a flavorful and hearty meal enjoyed across the Philippines.
