Crispy pata or deep-fried pork legs is one special dish that is served during fiestas and special occasions. Pork legs and boiled till tender then deep fried. I haven’t cooked it yet, though whenever I crave for one, a Filipino restaurant nearby satisfies my cravings. To accompany the crispy pata is a dipping sauce made of soy sauce, kalamansi and fresh chilis. Others prefer sweet-and-spicy gravy or simply atsara.
The dish is so rich and oily, you wouldn’t want to make a habit of eating it regularly. Otherwise, you need those life insurance quotes quick!
