Kaulit

Kaulit is a traditional Filipino dish originating from the Visayas region, particularly in the province of Cebu. It is a type of fried rice that is typically made with glutinous rice, which gives it a sticky and slightly sweet texture. The dish is often prepared using leftover rice, which is sautéed with various ingredients such as garlic, onions, and sometimes shrimp paste or fish sauce for flavor. Kaulit is commonly served as a side dish or a light meal, often accompanied by other Filipino dishes like adobo or sinigang. It is known for its simplicity and the use of readily available ingredients, making it a popular choice for both home cooking and street food. The dish has gained attention in recent years due to its growing popularity in the international culinary scene, with many restaurants and home cooks experimenting with different variations and ingredients to suit their tastes.
