Beef Tapa
Beef Tapa
Beef tapa is a very popular breakfast item in Filipino cuisine. Thin slices of sirloin get marinated in sugar, fish sauce, and a ridiculous amount of garlic for a day. The next morning, wake up, roll a fatty, and pan fry the beef for 2 minutes a side. It’s ready that quick. Beef tapa is always served with a mound of garlic fried rice and eggs. You can make beef tapa in large batches and freeze down portions in vacuum sealed bags.
