Sisig is one of those dishes that could really benefit from a meatless option. I love the flavors but some of those cuts can be gnarly.
My wife used fried tofu in this case. The tofu brought the texture while the sauce and the other garnishings carried the flavor.
Doesn't have to be meatless if you just don't like the cuts used. You can replace it with ground beef or fried breaded pork chops.
If I'm going to screw with tradition, I prefer to be either more healthy or far more decadent
This is a new dish to me. Looks great! Going to have to do some research on where I can get it locally to try it out.
Most Filipino restaurants will have it although it'll be pork-based not tofu.
