Ingredients

4 servings

2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic ((sliced))
1 bay leaf
½ onion ((chopped))
½ lb ground beef
½ lb ground pork
½ carrot ((chopped))
½ red bell pepper ((sliced))
½ zucchini ((chopped))
6 mushrooms ((sliced))
1 can tomato sauce ((15 oz, 425 g))
1 plantain ((sliced; I use a firm yellow banana))
3 -4 large eggs (50 g w/o shell)
2 Tbsp oyster sauce

Steps

In a large frying pan, heat olive oil and add garlic and bay leaf until fragrant.
Add the onion and sauté until soft.
Add the meat and stir until the meat is cooked through.
Add the carrot, bell pepper, zucchini, and mushrooms and sauté until soft.
Add tomato sauce and bring it to boil. Using a skimmer, skim off the scum and fat. This is really important step to get a refine taste so please don’t skip. After finished, lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are soft.
Meanwhile, you can fry plantain (banana) and eggs to your liking.
Add oyster sauce, soy sauce and raisins and stir well.
Serve rice on a plate/bowl and pour the sauce over. Top it with fried bananas and a sunny side up egg.
