Tapsilog is a popular Filipino dish that is often served for breakfast. The word “tapsilog” actually combines several Filipino dishes into a single word, just as breakfast combined with lunch becomes brunch. Tapa (beef), sinangag (garlic fried rice) and itlog (fried egg) become tapsilog. The beef tenderloin is thinly sliced and marinated in a tasty mixture of soy sauce, citrus, sugar and garlic. It is sweet, sour and spicy, slightly burnt on the outside but tender on the inside. When making garlic rice, it’s best to use cold, leftover rice so that it stays nice and chewy when cooked.
This dish is easy to put together, and although it’s traditionally a breakfast dish, it also makes a pretty satisfying dinner.
“I keep leftover rice frozen and ready to go for recipes like this. The tapsilog was tasty and I really loved the mixture of garlic rice, marinated meat and sunny side up egg. Try to find Filipino-style spicy vinegar. It’s so delicious!” – Diana Andrews
