Chicharon Bulaklak (Pork Ruffles) Recipe Chicharon Bulaklak is a popular Filipino dish made from the ruffled fat of pork intestines, known as "bulaklak" for its flower-like appearance when fried. It’s a beloved street food, usually served with a vinegar dipping sauce. Its crunchy texture and savory taste make it a favorite beer match or snack. Chicharon Bulaklak is prepared by cleaning and seasoning pork ruffles, then frying them until crispy. This recipe offers a healthier twist by using an air fryer, creating a crispy snack without the need for deep frying. Ingredients: 1 kg pork ruffles (bulaklak) 1/4 cup vinegar (for cleaning) 1 TBSP cup Shaoxing wine (optional) 1 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 TBSP vinegar (for marinating) Vinegar Sauce 1/2 cup vinegar 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 small red onion, minced ½ tsp ground black pepper Preparation: Clean the Pork Ruffles: Rinse the pork ruffles in cold, running water. Then, soak them in 1 cup of vinegar for 15 minutes to help remove any unwanted odor. Rinse the pork ruffles again under running water to ensure they're thoroughly cleaned. Cut into Pieces: Cut the pork ruffles into friable, bite-sized pieces, suitable for frying in your air fryer. Season and Marinate: Season the pork ruffles with salt, black pepper, ½ cup vinegar, and 1 cup Shaoxing wine. Mix well to ensure all pieces are evenly coated. Let the pork ruffles marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. Air FryerCooking: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Arrange 5 to 6 pieces of pork ruffles in a single layer inside the air fryer basket (adjust the number depending on the size of your air fryer). Cook for 10 minutes on one side, then flip the pieces and cook for another 10 minutes or until crispy and golden brown. Continue this process for all batches. Make sure each piece is cooked evenly and crispy. Serving: Prepare the Vinegar Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of vinegar, minced garlic, minced red onion, and ground black pepper. Mix well. Adjust the dipping sauce to taste, adding more garlic or black pepper if desired. Serve: Once the chicharon bulaklak is done frying, serve it immediately while hot and crispy, alongside the aromatic vinegar dipping sauce.
