Common ingredients include raw fish (like tuna or salmon), vinegar, calamansi juice, onions, ginger, chili, and sometimes coconut milk or fish sauce.
Serving:
Kinilaw is typically served as an appetizer or as a "pulutan" (a snack or side dish, especially with alcoholic beverages).
Variations:
While seafood is the most common ingredient, kinilaw can also be made with meat (like beef, pork, or goat) or even vegetables.
"Kilawin" vs. "Kinilaw":
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, "kilawin" more commonly refers to a lightly grilled meat dish, particularly in the northern Philippines.
