This week, I challenged myself not to eat pork and fried food, so finding dishes to eat can be a little difficult to do, but thanks to this recipe, I was able to find a great way to eat vegetables without having the need to use pork.
Sigarilyas Sarciado
serves 4
Ingredients:
- 10 pieces Sigarilyas (Wing Beans), sliced thinly
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 1 pack Mama Sita's Pang Gisa saute mix
- 3 tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 3 eggs, beaten
How to Cook:
- Heat oil in a pan and saute tomatoes and sigarilyas for about one minute.
- Add water and Mama Sita's Pang Gisa saute mix. Cover the pan and let the vegetable to cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked.
- Add the eggs. Stir and cook for 2 minutes more. Serve hot.

Anyway, we don't have the saute mix here at home, so I opted to do the traditional way: sauteing minced garlic and onion before adding the sigarilyas and tomatoes. For this recipe, I used about 5 medium sized sigarilyas and just one egg. I actually had a mistake by stirring the dish directly after adding the egg, so the egg didn't form well. To season it, I used salt and pepper.
A very, very simple dish, but I really loved how it turned out.
Best of all, I wasn't able to eat pork... another day of victory for me. :)
