Ingredients

Liempo recipe:

  • 2 lbs. pork belly sliced
  • 14 ounces crushed pineapple

Marinade/basting sauce ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon Knorr Liquid Seasoning
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • ½ lemon
  • 6 tablespoons banana ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon garlic minced

Pusit recipe:

  • 1 lb. squid large sized
  • 1 tablespoon granulated white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tomatoes cored and diced
  • 1 onion diced
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Knorr Liquid Seasoning

Instructions

  • Combine pork belly and crushed pineapple in a resealable bag. Refrigerate overnight. Note: this will add flavor to the meat and will help tenderize it. Separate the crushed pineapple afterwards and discard it.
  • Combine the marinade/basting sauce ingredients in a bowl. Pour three quarters of the mixture in the resealable bag with the pork belly. Marinate for at least 3 hours.
  • Prepare the squid by peeling off its skin. Combine it with sugar, baking soda, and juice of half of a lemon. Mix well and let it stay for 1 hour. Note: this will tenderize the squid. Rinse with running water.
  • Make the squid filling by combining tomato, onion, ground black pepper, and Knorr Liquid Seasoning. Mix well. Stuff the mixture inside the squid and secure the head using toothpicks.
  • Heat-up the grill and then start grilling the pork belly while brushing with basting sauce after every turn. Grill-up the squid. Remember not to overcook it as it can get tough.
  • Serve with spicy vinegar or your favorite dipping sauce. Share and enjoy!
