I first pressure cook the pork belly in a solution of water, patis, salt, pepper, garlic and some sugar. When it is tender, I let it cool in the cooking liquid. When it is cooled, I then cook it in the oven until the skin is crisp. So this is like lechon pugon more than lechon kawali. The result however is similar, if not better than regular lechon kawali. The skin crisps up nicely, and the excess fat liquifies and bastes the meat. The end product is a crispy, tender, healthier but more flavourful piece of pork heaven.

I boiled the pork with similar spices but instead of salting it and i added patis in the water. I have also used a pressure cooker to hasten the cooking time and it came out delicious as well. Just thought I'd share it with you guys. MM! I stumbled accross your site and I must say... I am have a blast reading all of the comments, blogs, etc... I will definately be back for more!

I was in Vigan last summer and I bought about 2 kilos of bagnet and its oh so yummy good for pinakbet!
