If there is something that is a staple to our home pantry, it is probably Lucky Me! Pancit Canton. For us, we always loved the chilimansi and sweet & spicy variants of Pancit Canton since we love something spicy and it’s always full of flavors. We often overlook the original flavor but it is a home staple that is versatile and has unlimited ways of preparing.
It was just recently that we discovered so many recipes that we can do with the original variant. We can now choose and decide how to cook it, depending on what we are craving.
For as low as Php12, we get a hearty meal that would satisfy our cravings. On days that we just need a little bit more, we rummage through our pantry to see other ingredients so we can level up our usual Pancit Canton.
Here are 3 of our favorite Pancit Canton recipes that you can recreate with ingredients you can make at your own home:
