Salayacan

Salayacan is a traditional Filipino dish that originated in the Visayas region, particularly in the province of Cebu. It is a type of fried rice that is typically served as a breakfast or brunch dish. The name "salayacan" comes from the Cebuano word "salay" which means "to fry," and "acan" which refers to rice.

The dish is made by stir-frying cooked rice with various ingredients, such as vegetables, meat, or seafood. Common ingredients include onions, garlic, bell peppers, carrots, and sometimes eggs. The rice is usually cooked separately before being stir-fried, which gives it a distinct texture and flavor. The dish is often seasoned with soy sauce, calamansi (a citrus fruit), and sometimes vinegar or chili peppers for added flavor.

Salayacan is typically served with a side of fried eggs or a fried egg omelette, known as "itlog" in Cebuano. It is often accompanied by a hot cup of coffee or tea. The dish is popular among Filipinos for its simplicity, affordability, and delicious taste. It is also a common breakfast option in restaurants and homes across the Philippines.
