Ampalaya must be my favorite vegetable to eat and cook. Whether it’s normal stir fry, cooked with egg, cooked with pork or cooked with shrimp, the ampalaya just tasted so good! So one day, I decided to try out ampalaya with egg and ground pork. As expected, it tasted yummy! I intend to share more ampalaya recipes here in the future.
Cooking Ampalaya with egg and ground pork takes only a few minutes. If you’re in a hurry, this is a dish to cook! You only need a few ingredients too and they’re usually staples in your kitchen (ampalaya, garlic, onions, tomatoes, ground pork, egg, oyster sauce, oil, salt and pepper).
