It may sound and look weird but this kind- of- exotic dish is far from tasting weird. Made by boiling a whole goat head in water until tender, this dish is a true Cebuano dish. Here in Iloilo, a goat head is seldom used as the main ingredient in any dish. Usually, it is mixed in "dinuguan". This is mainly because if not properly cleaned a goat's head, even if cooked, may smell bad. The technique is to clean every part of the goat's head especially the insides of the month. Brush the teeth and tongue but don't use soap :)
Ingredients for ukan are goat's head, water, pineapple juice and chunks and salt to taste. To cook, just boil the head until the meat can be easily separated from the bones. Then add the rest of the ingredients. Simmer until desired consistency is reached.
Best served when hot.
