Tokwa Cingur

Tokwa Cingur is a traditional dish made by substituting the pork in the traditional Tokwa't Baboy recipe with cingur, which is a cow's nose that has been boiled and sliced into small pieces. The dish is often made by mixing crispy fried tofu with sliced cingur and a savory soy-vinegar sauce with onions, garlic, and chili. It's a unique and flavorful dish that is enjoyed by many in Sundaland and would be a great addition to any Indonesian-Philipine-themed meal.
