Where to find ingredients
Buy the beans, vegetables, beef, bacon and pantry items at a supermarket, wet market or neighbourhood grocer in Singapore; for a quick swap, use a local chilli-free salad vinegar in place of the vinegar if needed, but keep the original ingredient as the ideal choice.
Preparation method
- In a pan, fry the chopped steak with the garlic, onion and bacon until golden.
- Add the chopped capsicum and sauté for another minute.
- Add the cooked beans, the chopped cabbage, water (enough to barely cover the ingredients), salt, black pepper, oregano, vinegar and the sweetener.
- Cook over medium heat until the cabbage is tender.
- With the salad still boiling, crack the egg directly into the pan.
- Stir vigorously with a fork or whisk until the egg cooks and the broth thickens slightly.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
- Serve hot.
