This beef tapa is the simplest (in my own opinion) to make and to cook. It also resembles the taste of the Jollibee beef tapa. Just use the tender parts of the beef like the tenderloin or sirloin and choose meat with less tendon. The cooking time is short, about 5 minutes or less in frying this tapa so it is advisable to choose the tenderloin. When serving it for breakfast, you can combine it with garlic fried rice, fried eggs and some atchara if available.

Tried this tapa recipe since I got curious about adding mayo.. i think it spells the difference! I love this recipe so much.. so easy to make and so close to the Jollibee breakfast back home. Thank you for this recipe! Do you have one for tocino?
Tried this recipe today and followed all measurement. Put only 1tbsp soy sauce and 3pcs calamansi. Awesome taste! Didnt get the consistencyas jollibee maybe because i fried it. Never knew I can use mayo on the marinade. It has the right amount of sweetness and saltyness. Thank you for this recipe ❤️
Hi Martha, You’re welcome! I’m happy to know that you like this beef tapa recipe. I’m also skeptical at first in using mayonnaise in beef tapa until my wife made it and it taste really good! Thanks for sharing your experience! 😁
Oh I never thought you can add mayonnaise to beef tapa. But I think it might taste similar to Jollibee break fast tapa. I’ll try to cook this tomorrow and lets see if it does taste similar. Thanks anyway for your recipe!

Hi! Which sugar should I use? Brown sugar or white sugar? ThAnk you.
You can use brown or white sugar.
What’s that liquid seasoning? Where can i buy it? I wanna try your recipe.
The best example is Knorr liquid seasoning. You can buy it in supermarkets.
Any suggestions for a substitute for the liquid seasoning? Maybe a copycat recipe for that ingredient.
I think there is no substitute for the liquid seasoning.
