In May, a tweet about the nuances of Filipino cooking techniques made the rounds on the internet. In it, a user observes that most local dishes are named after how they are cooked, thus the derivative names, nilaga, prinito, inihaw, ginisa.

These just prove that there is interest in Filipino cooking among the youth and that more people are, in fact, keeping these recipes alive by cooking at home, contrary to a recent report saying more Filipinos are choosing to dine out than prepare their own meals.

So what then is hindering younger people from cooking at home? 

Well, for one, knowledge. Only a few people have the know-how when it comes to matters of the kitchen. Most younger people resort to apocryphal facts, often instilled in them by elders who—no offense—have outdated notions about cooking. 

I mean, not everything needs to be marinated overnight, for God’s sake there are already commercially available tenderizers and meat seasoning to do that in under an hour, like the new Knorr SavorRich, Knorr’s first-ever liquid seasoning.

This liquid meaty seasoning comes in two variants: chicken and pork. Derived from real meat, Knorr SavorRich is all you need to save homecooks prep time without compromising on flavor.

We’ve come up with three easy-to-prepare recipes that even a kitchen novice can do by themselves in under half an hour. These are not heirloom Filipino recipes—those really take time, and for good reason. But here are some dishes that taste just as good.
