What do you do with leftover Lechon? Make it into Lechon Paksiw...
Lechon, either from roasted pig or Lechon Kawali, is not very appetizing when it's a day old in the refrigerator.
Thus, we make it into Lechon Paksiw.
Made by simmering the pork leftover with vinegar, sugar, a little soy sauce, bay leaf, and lechon sauce, it's a little tangy and on the sweet side.
