Ingredients
  • 250 grams liver (pork, chicken, or a combination of both)
  • ½ cup Vinegar
  • ¼ cup Cooking Oil
  • 3 tbsp Garlic, chopped
  • ½ cup Onion, chopped
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar

  1. In a small pot, blanch the liver in boiling water for 5-10 minutes or until half cooked. Transfer them with tongs into a blender. Blend it well in moderate setting while slowly adding in the vinegar until everything is smooth and pureed. Set aside.
  2. In a shallow frypan, heat your oil and sauté the garlic and onion in medium heat until fragrant. Add in the liver mixture, chicken stock, brown sugar, soy sauce and bay leaf. Let it simmer for 10 minutes and stir occasionally.
  3. Gradually add the bread crumbs while continuously stirring to avoid any lumps.
  4. Season it with salt and pepper and let it simmer for 5 minutes on medium heat until the sauce becomes thick.
  5. Serve with your favorite lechon or liempo.
