Filipino Spaghetti
What makes our version unique is the addition of banana catsup as sauce to add to the sweetness of the dish. As if the sweetness of the banana catsup is not enough, sugar is also added. Aside from the unique sauce, sliced hotdogs, beef franks or sausage is also added. Instead of meatballs, ground meat is added, and it is topped with quick-melting cheese instead of the usual parmesan cheese. If the traditional Italian Spaghetti is a little on the sour or tart side, the Filipino version is sweet. If it’s a tad too sweet for your taste, you can easily remove sugar in your recipe or just add a pinch.
