Original Tocino

This Tocino dish from the Philippines originates from many Filipino dishes in Spanish cuisine. Tocino means Bacon in Spanish and is traditionally made from the pork belly. In Filipino cuisine, Tocino is a thinly sliced belly of pork. This meat is then traditionally marinated with anise wine, annatto coloring, water, sugar, salt. The meat is allowed to marinate for a few days and is then lightly cooked and fried in oil. As with so many recipes in the Philippines, this recipe can of course vary by region. Just like Tapa and Longanisa, Tocino can also be served with rice and fried egg. This dish is then called Tosilog.

Preparation method:

• Heat oil in a pan and add the meat
• Turn the meat regularly until it is light brown in color
• The meat needs a short cooking time
