Filipino Cuisine: Sinuglaw Spicy (A Fusión Of Grilled Pork Belly & Tuna Civeche)

Welcome to:

Hello Steemians 👋

Sinuglaw is one of Philippines staple dish. A combination of pork and fish dish. This recipe was originated in Davao City and also popular all over the country. It is served in almost all occasions. It is also a versatile dish than can be serve as appetizer or main dish. I can’t help myself to go for extra rice every time this is in the table.

The word ”sinug” stand for sinugba (the Cebuano term for any grilled meat). For this dish, the meat that is use is grilled pork belly or known as ”pork liempo”.

and the last word ”law” derives from the word kinilaw, the Filipino version of ceviche
. In this dish, fresh tuna is combined with the pork belly.

If you like both kinilaw and grilled pork belly or ”liempo” then you’ll surely gonna love this simple and savory taste dish!

Let’s go and make it!
