Food Trip Friday: Beef Ampalaya


We’re not used to buy beef but I tried getting half kilo of lean meat the other day when I went to the market (now I learned to buy meat in the market for it is way cheaper and fresher than the supermarkets at the malls). I was planning to cook beef steak but ended up with Beef Ampalaya. This was our dinner last night and I must say it’s good enough for a first timer. It’s my first time to cook it and never looked for a recipe online. I just imagined how it was cooked. So far, so good according to my fans.
For the curious ones out there who wanted to try this recipe, it is fairly easy.
Here’s how:
Saute beef in garlic and onion. Simmer until tender. Put Ampalaya (Bitter Gourd) when the meat is tender. Season with salt and your fave seasoning. Cook for another 2 minutes or until Ampalaya is done (do not overcook it).
