Pork Sisig

The simplest way to create Sisig is actually purchasing a pig’s mind, cut your skin as well as ear in to pieces, after that fry this along with red onion, garlic clove, soup, and so on. (Forget about cooking, barbecuing or even marinating). Within the suburb exactly where all of us reside, all of us get access to the store exactly where we are able to purchase pig’s mind. The actual capture is actually, your own Sisig can be quite greasy (through an excessive amount of fat) as well as not-so-healthy. Therefore the begining which. Rather, We created the not-so-fatty Sisig in your own home.

Producing my very own sisig, when i found, had been tiresome. This is available in 4 stages: cooking, barbecuing, marinating as well as baking.

Listed here are the actual elements as well as what you ought to perform in most stage:

Boiling Phase
1/2 kilo Pork Neck
1/2 kilo Pork Shoulder/Rashers/Belly
1/4 kilo Minced Pork
1/4 kilo Liver (pork/chicken)
2 cups Water
1 cup Pineapple Juice
4 pcs Star Anise
1 tsp whole black peppers

Combine all ingredients mentioned above in a pot and bring to boil.  Simmer for about an hour or until tender.  Drain and leave until cool.


Grilling Phase:

Slice pork and liver in smaller pieces.  Place in baking pan and put inside the oven.  Grill for 30 minutes or until pork in golden brown and crispy.  Let it cool for awhile and then chop into small bits.

(The traditional way of doing this part of cooking sisig is placing pork in skewers and grilling over charcoal briquettes.  Since I'm doing it my way and to save myself time from putting pork into skewers and using another equipment, I grilled the pork via my oven instead.)

Marinating Phase:
Marinade Seasoning Mix
1 medium-sized onion, chopped
4 cloves of garlic, minced
4 chili (either red or green), chopped
1 tbsp ginger, sliced into small pieces
2 pcs Bay leaf
1/4 cup Vinegar
1/4 cup Calamansi juice (or lemon juice)
1/4 cup Pineapple juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
Mix chopped meat and Marinade Seasoning Mix in a bowl.  Keep marinated mixture in the fridge for 2-3 hours.


Frying Phase:
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Egg (or you can add more, depends on how many you want)

In a frying pan, fry the marinated pork in a tablespoon of olive oil (or your choice of oil).  Stir every once in a while until pork is golden brown and crispy.  Make a hole in the centre and crack an egg.

I have a special frying pan for my Sizzling Sisig and it's what I also use to serve this dish.  It's actually a square frying pan for steaks and it's thick, so it keeps the Sisig warm while we have dinner.

(In restaurants, Sizzling Sisig is served using a hot plate.)



Voila! My very own edition associated with Sisig! Much less fat through chicken, much less essential oil, much more beef.

The very first time We prepared this particular, We ensured we'd ale in your own home. We'd this particular for lunch as well as my hubby cherished this!!! It might be tiresome however viewing my personal Partner's encounter lighted in the second We offered it was greatly really worth all of the work. He or she actually requested me personally in order to prepare this once again the actual 7 days following.

Bon Appetit!
