Begin by preparing the pork belly by boiling it in a pot of water for 30 minutes or until tender but not falling apart. Drain and let it cool.
While the pork belly is cooling, sauté the chopped onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a large pan with 1 tablespoon of oil until fragrant and the onions are transparent.
Finely chop the pork liver and add it to the pan, cooking until thoroughly browned. Set aside.
Chop the cooled pork belly into small cubes and fry in the 2 tablespoons of remaining oil over medium heat until crispy and golden brown.
Combine the crispy pork belly with the liver mixture in the pan. Pour in the soy sauce and calamansi or lemon juice, stirring everything together.
Add the mayonnaise, stirring thoroughly to coat the liver and pork belly evenly.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Preheat a cast iron skillet on high heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt and spread over the pan evenly.
Transfer the cooked sisig mixture to the sizzling cast iron skillet to achieve that iconic sizzling effect.
Garnish with chopped bird's eye chilies and serve immediately for best taste.
