Cowpot? what the.......

Recipe: Cowpot
From: Ryan M. Greer

This is a family favorite and the original recipe was given to my father while in Thailand in 1971. I will show the original recipe then the family recipe that has been changed threw the years. Each side of the family has there own version of this but this is the recipe that was handed to me by my Mom.

Original Recipe:
2 big spoons Margarine
½ Onion
1 Egg
1 small spoon Salt
1 small spoon Sugar
2 Tomatoes
½ small spoon Dry pepper
4 criles Rice
½ crile Beef
½ small spoon Soy sauce

Family recipe:
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 sm. Onion
2 Eggs
2 cups Rice (cooked)
To taste Soy sauce
To taste Worcestershire sauce
To taste salt(sea salt)/pepper
1 Butter (for rice)
1 sm can Mushrooms (drained)
1 Tsp Sugar

To prepare:
Brown beef, (don’t drain) with chopped onions. Sprinkle 1-Tsp. Sugar over meat. Salt and Pepper (to taste). Then add a couple of shakes of Worcestershire sauce (to taste). Mix together well, and then make a well in the center of the meat. Scramble eggs in the center of the meat well. When eggs are scrambled, add mushrooms and mix together mix. Add Cooked Rice. Then Mix all ingredients together well and set stove-top heat to low. Sprinkle a little Salt and Pepper (to taste) and add chopped tomatoes. Shake a little soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce (to taste). Mix together and let flavors blend. I recommend you let this sit on the stove for at least a half-hour to let flavors blend.

Notes:
This dish is more rice than meat. You can also use chopped ham, lamb, or buffalo in place of the ground beef. If you use ham, sauté the ham first (to brown) and then follow the recipe. Have a bottle of Soy and worchester sauce to shake on as you eat.

Enjoy,
