Sisig Tofu is a plant-based twist on the traditional Filipino dish, sisig, known for its bold and savory flavors. Originating from the Philippines, sisig typically features chopped pork seasoned with onions, chili, and citrus, served sizzling. In this vegan adaptation, tofu replaces pork as the main ingredient, making it a lighter, protein-rich alternative. Tofu is sautéed with garlic, onions, and peppers, then flavored with soy sauce, calamansi juice, and chili for the signature tangy and spicy kick. Nutritionally, Sisig Tofu is a healthier option compared to its meat-based counterpart, offering less saturated fat and cholesterol. It’s rich in plant protein and can also provide essential nutrients like iron and calcium, depending on the type of tofu used. However, if prepared with excess oil or salty condiments, it can still be high in fat and sodium, so balanced portions are key to keeping it nutritious.
