Lechon Kawali

By Panlasang Pinoy

Ingredients

3 lbs. pork belly
8 grams Maggi Magic Sarap
6 cups water
1 tablespoon whole peppercorn
5 dried bay leaves
4 cups cooking oil

Combine pork belly, water, whole peppercorn and dried bay leaves in a wide cooking pot. Cover and let boil.

Adjust the heat to a simmer. Continue cooking for 1 ½ to 2 hours.

Remove the pork from the cooking pot. Place it on a plate and let it cool down.

Rub Maggi Magic Sarap all over the pork belly.

Soak it under the sun until the skin completely dries.

Heat the oil in a wok. Once the oil gets hot, carefully deep fry the pork belly until the outer part becomes golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the wok and put it over a wire rack. Let it cool down.

Slice into serving pieces. Serve with lechon sauce. Share and enjoy!
