Tapsilog is a Filipino dish made up of three main components: Tapsi (a shortened version of “tapa,” which refers to marinated beef), sinangag (garlic fried rice), and itlog (egg). Together, these elements make up the dish’s name: “Tapsi” + “sinangag” + “itlog” = Tapsilog. It is a popular breakfast dish in the Philippines and is often served with tomato and onions.
The cooking time for Tapsilog can vary depending on the specific recipe and method used. However, the following is a general guideline for an average recipe:
- Marinating the beef: 1 hour
- Preparing the marinade: 5-10 minutes
- Cutting and preparing the vegetables: 5-10 minutes
- Measuring and preparing the other ingredients: 5-10 minutes
So total time for the dish to be ready would be around 1 hour and 30-40 minutes.
It is important to note that cooking times can vary depending on the type of equipment used, the size of the cuts of beef, and the desired level of doneness. So, it’s always a good idea to check the meat occasionally while cooking.
Also note that preparation times can vary depending on the cook’s experience and familiarity with the recipe, as well as the size of the cuts of beef and the desired level of doneness.
Keep in mind that marinating the beef is an optional step, but it will enhance the taste of the beef.
