Food that remembers where we came from.

She left her roots carrying the flavours, celebrations and family memories of the Philippines—but not the knowledge of how to cook them. Far from home, the dishes she missed became a reason to learn.

She began one recipe at a time: asking questions, taking notes, tasting, adjusting and discovering that cooking could reconnect her with the culture she had carried all along. Lasang Pinoy at Home grew from that journey—a place for anyone learning to recreate the food that makes home feel close.

FILIPINO HOME COOKING

A practical guide to Filipino recipes

Filipino cuisine balances savoury, sour, sweet and salty flavours. Start with everyday lutong bahay favourites such as chicken adobo, pork sinigang and tinolang manok, then explore celebration dishes including pancit, kare-kare, lumpiang Shanghai and Filipino sweets.

What is lutong bahay?

Lutong bahay means home-cooked food: familiar Filipino dishes prepared for family meals and adapted to each household’s taste.

Good recipes for beginners

Chicken adobo, pancit bihon, tinolang manok and turon use straightforward techniques and are good introductions to Filipino cooking.
