Syti

Syti is a traditional dish from the Philippines, particularly popular in the Visayas region. It is a type of fried rice, often served as a main course or a side dish. The dish is typically made with glutinous rice, which gives it a sticky and slightly sweet texture. The rice is cooked with a variety of ingredients, including vegetables, meat, and sometimes seafood. Common vegetables used in syti include carrots, green beans, and bell peppers. The meat can be chicken, pork, or beef, and it is often marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and other spices before being added to the rice. The dish is then fried until the rice is crispy and golden brown. Syti is often served with a side of vinegar or a dipping sauce made from soy sauce and vinegar. It is a popular street food and is often sold by vendors in the Philippines. The dish is also a staple in many Filipino homes, often served during special occasions and family gatherings.
