Notes
*I’ve served this dish with everything from a simple fried egg, to poached egg to mixing the egg in and all three options are delicious. If you want to cook the eggs in with the beef, scramble 2 eggs in a bowl. When the beef is nearly cooked through, add the eggs into pan then allow to cook 2-3 min in the pan before serving.
