Tosilog

Tosilog is a classic Filipino breakfast dish that belongs to the family of “silog” meals. The name is a portmanteau of its components. To = Tocino (sweet cured pork),  Si = Sinangag (garlic fried rice) and Log = Itlog (fried egg)

Ingredients

• Uncooked tocino
• Sinangag
• Sunny-side up eggs
• Water
• Cooking oil

Instructions

1. Boil the water in a cooking pot.
2. Once the water starts to boil, pour-in the cooking oil and add the uncooked tocino. Boil in medium heat until the water evaporates.
3. Once the water completely evaporate, the oil will be left behind. Let one side of the tocino cook in oil for 3 minutes. Flip the tocino and cook the other side for the same time.
4.  Arrange the cooked tocino with the eggs in individual plates.
5. Meanwhile, remove the excess oil in the cooking pot where the tocino was cooked. Heat the same pot and put-in the sinangag. Cook the fried rice for 1 minute while tossing. The residue from the tocino will stick to the fried rice making it more tasty.
6.  Arrange the fried rice with the tocino in individual plates.
7.  Serve with spiced vinegar.
