About Sisig with egg

Sisig with egg is a beloved dish from Filipino cuisine, originating in Pampanga, Philippines. Traditionally made from chopped pig's face, ears, and liver, it’s seasoned with calamansi juice, soy sauce, chili peppers, and onions, then served sizzling. The addition of a fried or raw egg, which is often cooked on the hot plate, enhances the dish’s richness and creaminess. Sisig is known for its bold, savory, and tangy flavors. While it provides protein from the meat and egg, it can be high in fat due to the use of pork and added oils during preparation. Moderation is key, as sisig is often regarded as an indulgent treat rather than a health-conscious choice. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or brown rice can help balance its nutritional profile. Its unique flavor and cultural significance make it a cherished comfort food in Filipino dining.
