Notes

Kansi is a special Ilonggo dish that is widely served in most parts of Panay
Islands and the Negros region. It is a cross between Bulalo and Sinigang, two
of the favorite Filipino soup dishes. The locals mostly enjoy Kansi when the
cold weather sets in, but it is also a favorite fiesta food for its comforting
nature. Well, you can serve this hearty meal anytime you want to savor
something that’s truly delightful.
