Kuning
''Kuning'', also spelled ''koning'', ''kyuning'', or ''kiyuning'' and Anglicized as yellow rice or turmeric rice, is a Filipino rice dish cooked with turmeric, lemongrass, salt, bay leaves, and other spices to taste.

Nasi Kuning
''Nasi kuning'' (literally, "yellow rice"; ), or sometimes called ''nasi kunyit'' (literally, "turmeric rice"; ), is an Indonesian fragrant rice dish cooked with coconut milk and turmeric, hence the name ''nasi kuning'' (yellow rice). ''Nasi kuning'' also can be found in neighbouring Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore and Cocos Island, Australia. Because of its perceived favourable fortune and auspicious meaning, ''nasi kuning'' is often served as a special dish for celebrations; e.g. community rituals, ceremonies, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and also the independence day celebration. Nevertheless, it is also a favourite dish for breakfast in Indonesia. In the Philippines, a related dish exists in Mindanao, particularly among the Maranao people, where it is known as '' kuning''. Like the Indonesian version, it primarily uses turmeric, but also adds lemongrass and does not use coconut milk. A similar dish is also found in Sri Lankan cuisine where it is known as ''kaha buth'' ...

Sinangag
''Sinangag'' (), also called garlic fried rice or garlic rice, is a Filipino fried rice dish cooked by stir-frying pre-cooked rice with garlic. The rice used is preferably stale, usually leftover cooked rice from the previous day, as it results in rice that is slightly fermented and firmer. It is garnished with toasted garlic, rock salt, black pepper and sometimes chopped scallions. The rice grains are ideally loose and not stuck together. It is rarely eaten on its own, but is usually paired with a "dry" meat dish such as tocino (bacon), ''longganisa'' (sausage), ''tapa'' (dried or cured meat), Spam, or ''daing'' (dried fish), as well as the addition of scrambled or fried eggs. Unlike other types of fried rice, it does not normally use ingredients other than garlic, in order not to overwhelm the flavour of the main dish. In the Visayas regions of the Philippines, ''sinangag'' was traditionally seasoned with '' asín tibuok''. ''Sinangag'' is a common part of a traditional Fili ...

Java Rice
Java rice, sometimes called yellow fried rice, is a Filipino fried rice dish characterized by its yellow-orange tint from the use of turmeric or annatto. Variants of the dish add bell peppers, pimiento, paprika, and/or tomato ketchup to season the fried rice. Despite its name, it does not originate from Java or Indonesia in general. Although its actual origin is uncertain, java rice is associated with Engracia Cruz-Reyes' Aristocrat restaurant (founded in 1936 in Manila), in part due to their popularization of serving their chicken barbecue ('' inihaw'') with this preparation of rice.

Bringhe
Paelya () or paella (Spanish) is a Philippine rice dish adapted from the Valencian ''paella''. However, it differs significantly in its use of native glutinous rice (''malagkít''), giving it a soft and sticky texture, unlike the ''al dente'' texture favoured in Spanish ''paella''. It is also characteristically topped with sliced eggs. Filipino ''paelya'' does not use saffron, but is instead coloured with ''atsuete'' (anatto), ''luyang diláw'' (turmeric), or ''kasubhâ'' (safflower). ''Paelya'' is also a umbrella term, general term for similar dishes in the Philippines, regardless of the ingredients used. It includes ''arroz a la valenciana'' (usually made with chicken and ''Chorizo de Bilbao, chorizo de bilbao''), ''bringhe'' (made with coconut milk), and ''paella negra'' (made with squid ink). Etymology The name is derived from Spanish ''wikt:paella, paella'', but is pronounced with lleismo. Like most occurrences of the ll Digraph (orthography), digraph in Languages of the ...

Philippine Languages
The Philippine languages or Philippinic are a proposed group by R. David Paul Zorc (1986) and Robert Blust (1991; 2005; 2019) that include all the languages of the Philippines and northern Sulawesi, Indonesia—except Sama–Bajaw (languages of the "Sea Gypsies") and the Molbog language (disputed)—and form a subfamily of Austronesian languages. Although the Philippines is near the center of Austronesian expansion from Taiwan, there is relatively little linguistic diversity among the approximately 150 Philippine languages, suggesting that earlier diversity has been erased by the spread of the ancestor of the modern Philippine languages. Classification History and criticism One of the first explicit classifications of a "Philippine" grouping based on genetic affiliation was in 1906 by Frank Blake, who placed them as a subdivision of the "Malay branch" within Malayo-Polynesian (MP), which at that time was considered as a family. Blake however encompasses every language ...

Coconut Milk
Coconut milk is a plant milk extracted from the grated pulp of mature coconuts. The opacity and rich taste of the milky-white liquid are due to its high oil content, most of which is saturated fat. Coconut milk is a traditional food ingredient used in Southeast Asia, Oceania, South Asia, and East Africa. It is also used for cooking in the Caribbean, Central America, northern parts of South America and West Africa, where coconuts were introduced during the colonial era. Coconut milk is differentiated into subtypes based on fat content. They can be generalized into coconut cream (or thick coconut milk) with the highest amount of fat; coconut milk (or thin coconut milk) with a maximum of around 20% fat; and coconut skim milk with negligible amounts of fat. This terminology is not always followed in commercial coconut milk sold in Western countries. Coconut milk can also be used to produce milk substitutes (differentiated as "coconut milk beverages"). These products are not ...
