Rebosado or Rebosadong Taba ng Baboy (Deep-Fried Battered Fatback)

Preparation

• Remove the skin of the fat and cut it up into small pieces, about ¼ inch thick by 1 inch wide by 2 inches long size. Wash several times and thoroughly drain.
• In a deep mixing bowl, dump the drained fatback and add all the remaining ingredients. Mix everything until the fatback is coated with a thick batter.
• You can adjust the ingredients provided above. The idea is to have a well seasoned and rich batter that will fully coat all the fatback pieces.
• In a medium, deep and heavy bottomed pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high flame until hot but not smoking.
• Fry the battered fatback in batches. When slightly browned and crisp, flip over to cook the underside.
• Continue cooking in batches until all is deep-fried. Drain excess oil from the cooked rebosado using paper towels. Too much oil is not good for your health.
• Transfer the dish in a medium plate and serve warm along with a sweet and sour dipping sauce or any other dipping sauces that you like.
