Sisig Krep



“Sisig” (see’ seeg) is an original Filipino recipe started by folks from the country’s northern part, Pampanga.This one is sisig with a twist from the ingredient specialist who shared this recipe to us.

Meat:
1 kilo skin-on pork mask (if available OR 1 kilo skin-on picnic shoulder)
¼ kilo lightly boiled chicken liver (semi cooked ; Mash to a paste state. Set aside)

Flavor enhancers :
70 ml cane vinegar
5 grams  salt
2 grams cracked black pepper 
1 bulb large white onion (finely chopped ; Set aside ½)
1 clove garlic (crushed ; Set aside)
2 pcs red cayenne (or Jalapeno pepper finely chopped)
50 ml soy sauce 
20 ml lemon juice 
15 ml palm oil


Grilling/serving medium :
Griller
Charcoal
20-25 pieces pita bread (roll)

Procedures:

3. In a suitable frying pan, heat palm oil. Add in crushed garlic, toss until brown, dump the ½ chopped onion-mix and tumble until translucent. Remove or strain cooked solids. Set aside this “flavored oil”.

4. In a bowl, in this sequence and while tossing constantly, mix cut meat, chicken liver paste, vinegar, soy sauce, salt, black and red peppers. Mix well. In the same frying pan with “flavored oil” pour in meat mixture and lightly heat tumbling well to avoid sticking to bottom of pan.

Lechon Manok with Tanglad


Lemon grass is one of the most aromatic herb that can be used in cooking, commonly known in the Philippines as tanglad. Oven roasted chicken with lemon grass is very yummy,  and the fragrant of the lemon grass helped to make the inside part of the chicken aromatic. Try it.

Apan-apan


Apan-apan is an Ilonggo dish using swamp cabbage ( kangkong). My parents always cook this when I was younger that's why  learned this recipe from them (both of them are Ilonggo). You can use also the leaves for this dish, but we love it with only the stalks then we use the leaves for other dishes. If you love adobong kangkong, you will surely love apan-apan.
