SWEET AND SPICY BEEF TAPA

Beef tapa is a classic Filipino dish which simply means fried beef slices. It became more popular when it was included in the trio of perfect sinangag (fried rice) and fried egg partners alongside longganiza (Filipino sausage) and tocino (cured pork). 

A lot of eateries called silogan serving only these three dishes have sprouted everywhere in the Philippines. It is probably the Philippines' answer to English all day breakfast. This version of tapa is sweet and spicy, perfect to whet your appetite.

1/2 tsp. ground ginger
