🇵🇭 Philippines recipe
Sisig
Sisig is a bold, intensely flavorful dish that originated in Angeles City, Pampanga, and has become one of the most iconic Filipino bar foods. Traditionally made from parts of a pig's head that are boiled, grilled, and then chopped before being sizzled on a hot plate with onions, chilies, and calamansi. The sizzling sound and aroma as the plate arrives at the table is part of the experience, and a raw egg is often cracked on top to cook on the scorching-hot iron plate.
