Lechon kawali, also known as lechon carajay, is crispy pork belly deep-fried in a pan or wok. It is seasoned beforehand, cooked then served chopped into pieces. It is usually accompanied with a dipping sauce, such as "lechon sauce" traditionally made with pork liver, or toyomansi.
If deep-fried extensively until crispy and crunchy, it becomes the Ilocano bagnet, a variant of chicharon. Lechon kawali is also a common accompaniment or ingredient to stir-fried water spinach with shrimp paste (binagoongang kangkong).
