CRISPY PATA WITH KNORR LIQUID SEASONING VINEGAR DIP

For us Filipinos, it’s not a party without the pata. So bring the happy in your get-together with this well-loved pork dish.

You’ll need…

1 whole pork pata, cleaned and nails removed
1 tbsp black peppercorns
2 pcs onions, quartered
1 head garlic, crushed
3 pcs star anise
2-3 tbsp rock salt
water, enough to cover meat
rock salt/fish sauce for rubbing
oil for frying

Dipping sauce:

¼ cup Knorr Liquid Seasoning
½ cup vinegar
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small pc red onion, chopped
1 pc sili labuyo, sliced
pinch ground black pepper

Let’s get cooking!

1. In a big pot, place pork knuckles along with the black peppercorns, onions, garlic, star anise, and salt. Fill with enough water to cover meat. Bring to boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook slowly until meat is fork tender.
2. Once the pata is tender, remove from the pot and drain. Infuse flavor by rubbing the meat with salt or fish sauce. For a crispy skin, leave the pata in the chiller overnight without cover. This is to remove the moisture and dry it.
3. Heat a big shallow pan. Fill with oil and turn the heat to medium. Gently slide the pata in the hot oil and fry until brown and crispy.
4. Of course, pata is incomplete without the all-time favorite Knorr Liquid Seasoning-vinegar dip. Just combine all the ingredients for the dip. Add siling labuyo if you like it spicy.
5. Serve and indulge in the mouth watering pata!
