Tocilog is a popular Filipino breakfast dish that combines the sweet and savory flavors of tocino with the simplicity of fried rice (sinangag) and a sunny-side-up egg (itlog), hence the name Tocilog, a portmanteau of its three components. Tocino refers to cured pork that is marinated in a mixture of sugar, salt, and various spices, then fried until caramelized. This dish is part of a larger family of Filipino breakfast dishes known as "silog" meals, which always include garlic fried rice and an egg alongside a meat dish.
