I’m new to Filipino cooking and recently heard a lot about the local take on baked macaroni. I know it’s a popular dish during fiestas and family gatherings, but I’m not exactly sure how the Filipino version differs from the regular baked macaroni I’m used to. Does anyone have any tips, variations, or even a simple recipe to share? I’ve heard that ingredients like ham, hotdogs, and lots of cheese might be common, but I’d like to know what makes the Filipino baked macaroni uniquely delicious. Any advice for a beginner would be really appreciated!
