Ginisang Sayote

Ingredients

• 70g lean ground pork
• 1 small tomato, sliced
• 1/2 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 small sayote (chayote), cut into matchsticks
• 1-2 tsp oyster sauce
• 1 tsp fish sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• salt, to taste
• pepper, to taste

Directions

• Prep the sayote: peel and cut it into matchsticks (rubbing the cut ends together first helps release the sap that otherwise makes your hands sticky).
• Brown the ground pork in a pan, then push it to the sides.
• Add the tomato and onion and cook until soft, then mix in the garlic.
• Add the sayote along with the oyster sauce and fish sauce.
• Pour in the water, cover, and simmer until the sayote reaches your preferred texture, stirring occasionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom.
• Taste, adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, and serve over rice.
