Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic (sliced)
- 1 bay leaf
- ½ onion (chopped)
- ½ lb ground beef
- ½ lb ground pork
- ½ carrot (chopped)
- ½ red bell pepper (sliced)
- ½ zucchini (chopped)
- 6 mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 can tomato sauce (15 oz, 425 g)
- 1 plantain (sliced; I use a firm yellow banana)
- 3-4 large eggs (50 g each w/o shell)
- 2 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp raisins
- 4 ervings cooked Japanese short-grain rice
- parsley
Instructions
- In a large frying pan, heat olive oil and add garlic and bay leaf until fragrant.
- Add the onion and sauté until soft.
- Add the meat and stir until the meat is cooked through.
- Add the carrot, bell pepper, zucchini, and mushrooms and sauté until soft.
- Add tomato sauce and bring it to boil. Using a skimmer, skim off the scum and fat. This is really important step to get a refine taste so please don’t skip. After finished, lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.
- Meanwhile, you can fry plantain (banana) and eggs to your liking.
- Add oyster sauce, soy sauce and raisins and stir well.
- Serve rice on a plate/bowl and pour the sauce over. Top it with fried bananas and a sunny side up egg.
Notes
- The recipe is adapted from Skip to Malou.
