While Filipino food has been popping up all over the U.S., Hollywood’s own Gwyneth Paltrow didn’t need a chef or a trip to LA’s Filipino spots. She only needed to search online to whip up a breakfast classic—the tocino.
In an Instagram reel, Gwyneth flexed her homemade tocino, describing it as “sweet, savory, and incredibly flavorful.”
She even went full-on “tosilog” vibes by adding fried eggs to the plate. The only thing missing is the garlic rice. But there’s a reason.
“Brad requested cauliflower rice for a carb light,” she explained, referring to her husband, Brad Falchuk.
Netizens quickly gave thumbs up approval for the actress’ effort and the love shown to Pinoy food, with some even suggesting other Pinoy recipes that she can try.
“Wow! One of our Filipino favorite breakfasts!”
“Love tocino! Filipino fave dish!”
“Try sinigang too”
“Thanks for spotlighting a Filipino breakfast!!”
“I’m a Filipino and I can say this is the healthiest version of our breakfast”
“Love when you do Filipino breakfast next do chicken adobo for dinner”
