Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow surprised everyone on social media as she tried to cook a popular Filipino dish:  pork tocino. On her personal Instagram account, the award-winning star shared what went down in her kitchen as she made a new version of the Filipino viand.

Pork Tocino is a popular Filipino dish often eaten during breakfast alongside eggs and fried rice.

“Tried my hand at making pork tocino this morning—sweet, savory, and incredibly flavorful,” she shared.

Gwyneth showed the process of her making the Filipino dish–– something far from the usual that Filipinos make. Instead of using the usual cuts made for tocino, the Hollywood celebrity opted for her own cut of meat.

She also made sure to make it healthier as she substituted the fried rice with cauliflower rice. The dish was made not only for her but for her partner as well, who requested for the light carbs.

“Brad requested cauliflower rice for a carb light #boyfriendbreakfast,” she added.

Several Filipino personalities stormed the comment section to share how happy they were that she was able to try out a Filipino dish. Other friends of the actress wanted to get a taste of it as well.

“Ok now, come on,” Hollywood actress Jennifer Garner wrote.

“Wow! One of our Filipino favorite breakfasts,” Carla Abellana shared.

“Tocilog,” Mylene Dizon added.

“Happy Filipino Food Month is this April @gwynethpaltrow @filipinofoodmonth 🇵🇭 Thanks for making one of our favorite almusals or breakfast dishes! Garlic Fried Rice & and egg makes this a winner too,” a fan wrote. 

“I’m a Filipino and I can say this is the healthiest version of our breakfast,” a fan added.

Gwyneth has been sharing several breakfast meals that she’s been cooking for her and her partner to her millions of followers on social media. Apart from pork tocino, the Hollywood actress has already tried out other dishes, to the delight of her fans.
