Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cut 1 pound pork shoulder into 1-inch cubes and grill for 6-8 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Let cool slightly, then chop the grilled pork into small 1/4-inch pieces.
  2. Step 2: Thinly slice 4 small shallots and 2 red chili peppers. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a small pan over medium heat and fry shallots until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  3. Step 3: In a mixing bowl, combine chopped pork, 3 tbsp calamansi juice, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, sliced chili, salt to taste, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Toss well to coat.
  4. Step 4: Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle the crispy shallots on top. Serve immediately with steamed rice or as a flavorful snack.
