Lusog Notes

This local dish is rich in iron and niacin. Iron is important for normal metabolism and in the formation of red blood cells that transport oxygen in the bloodstream. On the other hand, niacin helps keep the digestive and nervous system healthy.

Chef`s Tip

For an authentic kansi, use batwan as your souring agent. This Ilongo fruit is mildly sour and is very popular in the region.
