Egg sarciado

Egg sarciado (Saucy egg?). Whatever its English name, that’s it. It taste good if paired with prito nga uga (fried dried fish) especially uga nga sapsap or pinakas. Sapsap is a flat roundish fish about 3” diameter, silvery in color, I dunno it’s English name. Pinakas is some kind of tuna fish cut half from the backbone to its belly.

Saucy egg (sounds good, right?) is basically hard cooked egg with sauce. All you have to do is hard cook  some eggs let’s say 5 eggs, by boiling it in plain water for about 15-20 minutes. Peel and quarter lengthwise. Then arrange the sliced eggs in a platter and set aside.

Then, sautee some crushed garlic, minced onions and about a cupful of sliced tomatoes. Add some water, cover and simmer for about 3 minutes. Mash (duludogmokon) the tomatoes to extract the flesh and produce the sauce. Add salt to taste. Then pour mixture over sliced eggs. Ola!!! This is best serve for breakfast.
