When I read Sassy’s potato omelet entry for LP7, I promised myself I’m gonna try it the very next day. I wanna do it exactly how she did it but I have some leftover tuna chunks that I decided to include them in mine.
Ingredients:
3 eggs, beaten
leftover tuna chunks
1 large potato, cut into cubes
salt & pepper
Fry the potatoes until a little bit browned and crispy like French fries. Pour off the excess oil and add in the left-over tuna. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in the eggs and cook slowly, stirring and scraping from the bottom of the pan until the eggs are of desired consistency. Serve immediately.

[...] When we were kids, with the exception of pandesal, champorado and oatmeal, almusal (breakfast) was always heavy and hearty with sinangag so as not to hear your stomach growl before lunchtime. Ulam (main dish) would either be tuyo (dried fish – can be dilis, hawot, daing, squid,etc), tinapa, scrambled eggs, corned beef, hotdogs, tortang talong or any other canned goods like sardines and complemented by hot chocolate, milk or orange juice. Over the years, new ulam were added such as longganisa, tocino or even daing na bangus. [...]
[...] What do you do with leftover food? Everyday cooking has made me a bit of an expert in calculating how much we can consume and which dish is a hit that I seldom have leftovers. But of course it doesn’t happen all the time. Fine. Yet I don’t think I could throw away a good and decent portion of food without feeling guilty for the hungry street children and leftovers aren’t as appetizing the second time around so a makeover is usually the case. One way of being creative is to camouflage it as an ingredient to a new dish. Usually I cut pieces of meat (like adobo) or vegetables, and use them as ingredient to fried rice the next morning for breakfast. A stir-fry vegetable dish could be toppings to fried noodles. I think of fish balls when there is leftover steamed fish. What’s left of sinaing na tulingan can be made into tuna pasta or tuna omelet. Don’t be surprised that I even made something out of take-away beef rendang! [...]
