In a large bowl, combine the ground pork and pork fat until well mixed.
Add erythritol, coconut aminos, vinegar, minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, paprika, onion powder, and celery seed to the pork mixture.
Mix all ingredients thoroughly by hand until evenly distributed.
If using natural sausage casings, soak them in warm water for about 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly under running water.
Stuff the pork mixture into the casings, making links of desired length, or form into patties if you prefer not to use casings.
To cook, preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Add the longganisa and cook for 10 minutes, turning occasionally until browned on all sides.
Add a little water to the pan, cover, and let the sausages steam for another 10 minutes or until fully cooked.
Serve the longganisa with your favorite keto-friendly sides, such as cauliflower rice or a salad.
