Tag: Low calorie filipino food

According to a recipe analysis by Ajinomoto Philippines, a serving of pork nilaga can contain over 340 calories, proving that the calorie count for this traditional Filipino soup is not always low and depends heavily on the preparation.

With its signature sour broth and mix of hearty vegetables and protein, Sinigang is a Filipino favorite. However, a standard bowl can contain anywhere from 160 to almost 400 calories, making many wonder: does sinigang have a lot of calories? The truth is, the calorie count is highly dependent on the type of meat and specific ingredients used.
