Ampalaya con Carne Recipe

Soak ampalaya in water with 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.

Heat oil in a medium-sized frying pan. Saute garlic and onion in oil. Cook until onions are translucent.

Add the ground beef and cook until meat turns brown, around 5 minutes.

Season with soy sauce and salt and pepper. Drain the ampalaya from the water and add into sauteed vegetables and cook for 5 more minutes.
