Filipino Spaghetti is a beloved dish that reflects the Philippines’ knack for blending flavors and influences. Adapted from Italian cuisine, this version features a sweet-style tomato sauce typically made with banana ketchup, sugar, and milk or cream. It’s generously topped with sliced hotdogs, ground pork or beef, and often grated cheese for a rich finish. Served over al dente pasta, it’s a staple at celebrations and family gatherings. While Filipino Spaghetti provides a good source of carbohydrates and protein, it tends to be high in sugar, sodium, and saturated fats due to its sweetened sauce and processed meat toppings. Pairing the dish with a side of vegetables or opting for lower-fat meat and reduced-sugar ingredients can make it a more balanced meal. Despite its indulgent profile, Filipino Spaghetti remains a comforting treat that showcases Filipino culinary creativity.
