Lechon Sisig

Lechon Sisig is a type of sisig made with left over lechon, sisig on the other hand is a popular dish in the Philippines made with fatty pork finely chopped and seasoned with ginger, onions, chillies, salt and pepper.

Next time you will have a lechon before you start serving it to your guests, set aside the head and the legs as this is the best part to use on our recipe today, anyways very few people get these parts on parties as it makes a lot of mess since the plastic utensils they are using will be helpless cutting though the crispy skin. Lechon Sisig is the best of both worlds, partly lechon and partly sisig, if you love both then this is a no brainer for you, basically a type of sisig where minced lechon meat, fast and skin is prepared with sautéed garlic and ginger then flavoured with hints of soy sauce, calamansi juice and mayonnaise. A nice appetizer, side dish, mains or even beer match but just take it in moderation and don’t tell me I did not warned you.
