Diskarteng Tamad: Tapa

beef
soy sauce
vinegar
sugar
garlic
onion
ground pepper

  • chop garlic and onions finely
  • put in the pan together with the chopped beef
  • there will be no sautéing involved, so don’t light the stove yet
  • stir in soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and pepper (to have a better idea of how your tapa will taste, mix the liquid ingredients + sugar in a separate small bowl first, up to you whether to add more soy sauce, or vinegar, or sugar)
  • incorporate the mixture thoroughly into the beef cuts
  • cook under medium heat until beef is just right (not too tender, and not too tough)
  • if there are any remaining sauces/juices from the pan, simmer until thick and pour over the tapa
  • ready to serve with fried egg and fried rice

n.b. – if you are in the mood, you can fry the beef pieces first before serving (since this is a diskarteng tamad piece, i did not include the frying part…optional baga :D )
