Mantika
Mantika is the Filipino word for "cooking oil", particularly vegetable oil usually used for ordinary cooking. Butter is very seldom used in Philippine cooking as they are expensive. Nowadays, however, when there are local brands of butter already produced in the Philippines, some cooks already use butter for cooking as an alternative to "Mantika".
