With Spanish, Chinese and Malay influences, Filipino cuisine is distinct from that of its South East Asian neighbours with its sweet, salty, sour and spicy flavours. From staples such as humba (braised pork belly) and tinolang manok (chicken in ginger soup), to snacks such as maja blanca (coconut and corn custard) and ube halaya (purple yam jam), Fuss-free Filipino Food features some of the most popular dishes from across the archipelago, with quick and easy recipes that ensure anyone can savour the comforting flavours of Filipino cooking without having to spend hours in the kitchen.
