The only recipe that I tacked with a magnet on my son's refrigerator door is for beef tapa. It is so yummy and easy to make especially for breakfast that there's hardly any need to buy it in the wet market or supermarket if you're in the Philippines or at Filipino stores if you're overseas. If you aim to eat healthy and do away with preservatives, MSG, etc. the best way is to prepare food from scratch.
I got the recipe from my sister but I tweaked the measurements to make sure my son won't screw it up. Since we hardly use sugar if we can avoid it, we use Splenda instead to give the beef tapa just a hint of sweetness. You can also substitute beef with pork. Try the recipe below and your family will love it. Here's my kitchen-tested recipe:
Beef tapa
1/2 kg sirloin, thinly sliced
2 tbsps vinegar
2 tbsps soy sauce
1/2 tsp white sugar (or 1/2 sachet Splenda)
1/4 tsp black or white pepper poweder (3 shakes)
3 segments garlic (pounded)
Mix all the ingredients and marinate for at least 30 minutes. In a skillet, put 1 tbsp. cooking oil. Stir-fry the marinated sirloin until cooked. Serve hot with steamed rice and sliced fresh tomatoes.
