Lechon Sauce Recipe
I was able to take some Lechon leftovers from the birthday party that we’ve been to last night and I plan to make some Lechon Paksiw out of it. The most important ingredient in making Lechon Paksiw other than the Lechon itself or the Lechon kawali is the Lechon Sauce (which is also called Sarsa ng Lechon).
I can easily get some commercialized bottled Lechon sauce from the Asian grocery but I thought that I can save some money if I just make it myself.
Making Lechon sauce is not as complicated as most of you might be thinking. With the complete ingredients and proper kitchen equipment on hand, you will find this procedure to be a piece of cake.

Thanks a lot for this recipe. I always like Lechon Sauce with Liver. Mas masarap. I used to buy Garnet brand Lechon Sauce with Liver. But they stopped selling them sa Asian Grocery stores.
Lorna says
I did it yesterday and it turns pretty good. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Better than Mang Tomas sauce.
Delia says

R: Crispy Lechon BELLY
When you rolled the pork belly, there was a part of the skin that was covered. Will that part be Crispy Also?
Vanjo Merano says
Yes, as long as your roasting rack is elevated. The belly should not sit flat on the baking pan.
SHERWIN SEVILLA says
ilan days po itinatagal nito sauce na ito? kc mang tomy pede stay long sa frigde ito po ba same din approx how long it will take
Vanjo Merano says
Sherwin, it can last for up to 2 weeks as long as you handle it properly. Mas maganda sana kung ilalagay mo ito sa isang container na may cover at paki cover ito mabuti.
Rene says

We’ll try to make that soon, camille. Thanks for commenting.
Panlasang Pinoy says
You can make liver paste by using a food processor. You may also use liver spread as an alternative.
Mags says
Hi, do i need to boil the liver first bago ko ilagay sa processor?
Vanjo Merano says
You can do either. I usually do it raw, but if you can’t stand it then boiling it first will help.
Linda says
My mom usually have the sliced pork liver slightly grilled to get rid of the blood.
