Sisig Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Sisig is a popular appetizer (pulutan) turned main dish that originated from the culinary capital of the Philippines : Pampanga. This dish was invented by Lucia Cunanan or popularly know as Aling Lucing (she is also known as the sisig queen). Originally, sisig is composed of chopped pigs face (snout included) and ears with a generous amounts of chicken liver. Hundreds of sisig variations are available today ranging from the original pigs face (maskara) ingredient to a more healthy seafood concoction such as squid, tuna, milk fish (bangus), and mussels.

Pork-Sisig

There are several restaurants and even eateries (carinderia) that serve this wonderful dish. I know that we all have our own favorite sisig places (like Dencio’s or Jerry’s Grill perhaps) but it is still good to know how to make one.

Try this delicious Sisig Recipe and let me know what you think.

    it was our first time to cook this recipe, which we planned to have for the new year’s eve. i’ve been following this site for a few weeks, and this sisig recipe really helped us. my husband followed the instructional video, and he came up with a very good tasting sisig! we placed it on a sizzling plate and added a freshly cracked egg on top of it. viola! it’s like we were enjoying the meal in a five star hotel! our friends and neighbors were very delighted with this, and they always ask him to cook it again. luckily i was also with him while doing this, so now i also know how to cook sisig. thanks alot for sharing this recipe! i’m sure to try your other recipes soon. =)

      you can use the oven in your stove and put it on grill..if grill option is not there..use bake.. but if you use your oven make sure the fire alarm is off in your building or if you can not turn off the fire alarm..make sure the windows are open.

      sometimes there is a bit of smoke using the oven..so you really have to keep an eye on it.. around 150 to 200 degrees is acceptable.

      doesn’t take long either.

      or if you want authentic looking grilling..buy a george foreman electric grill.

      same problem we had before …we lived in a condo ..and bawal mag grill and bawal din to remove the fire alarms…so based on experience namin ‘to.

      cheers!
