Can anyone share successful attempts to "Filipinize" pasta dishes? I love pasta and I cook pasta dishes a lot (to the point that I sometimes make the pasta myself) and I've always wanted to bridge the gap of Italian cooking to the Filipino palate. Let's not include the "spaghetti alla ketchup" that pinoys always make for birthday parties. I once told an Italian guest we had about Filipinos using ketchup to make spaghetti and the only thing he said was, "That's a crime." Anyway, any successful or not so successful attempts on putting a distinctly Filipino twist on a traditional Italian recipe?

Thats an interesting thought James, i've had a few dishes that fused Italian and Filipino. Theres one using sisig mixture in it ( light cream base, no cheese ) and suprisingly it wasnt oily but able to taste bits of sisig with pasta. Another one would be my favorite, it tickled my taste buds with a very light pesto based sauce (but had some sort of chutney feeling to it )served with green mango and shrimps.

That idea with the sisig sounds really promising. =) I really love sisig and I think there's a way to cook the sisig without the oil. I've seen it when I ate the "original" Angeles version. I guess I'll try to experiment on this based on your suggestions. I'll post my success (or not) with this.

i attended a party last sunday and the pasta was great ( i forgot to ask my tita who the caterer was)! i was thinking of making one for my baby's birthday next week but i don't know a thing about cooking pasta! i always depended on mccormick hehehe. anyway, akong na observe sa akong pag kaon sa maong pasta nga murag naay herbs dayon spag sauce with lots of cheese. murag siya ug gi bake kay melted ang cheese all over the top. no meat. di gyud ko kamao mo describe sa food hehe. unsaon ni pag make? i thought i'd throw in mccormick's (again) herb and garlic mix plus spag sauce and cheese. but then again, maybe not. i'll just leave the cooking to the experts.

cooked preferred pasta to al dente 10 mins or until you think that it is done....strain and put a but of oil to stop the pasta from sticking from each other ... for the sauce make a quick marinara sauce( basic pasta tomato sauce) its just garlic onions crushed tomatoes(canned) and fresh basil after the sauce is done season with salt and pepper..then if desired put any cheese you like and dont froget to top it with fresh basil on top....hope i helped..
