Lugaw to the rescue!
There’s nothing more perfect than a bowl of hot lugaw on a rainy day or when you’re feeling a bit under the weather. Don’t you agree? It is the most basic rice porridge you can make when you’re at home, which usually includes slices of ginger and is topped with spring onions. You can even add a hard-boiled egg if you’re feeling fancy and some patis (fish sauce) on the side.
