- Brown the meat and remove from the pan. Next, cook the onion and pepper for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and spices and cook 2 minutes. Add the meat, tomatoes, eggs, parsley, and olives. simmer about 15 minutes, stirring often to mix well. Finally add the sweet potatoes and mix until heated through.
- Boil the rice about 10 minutes until tender. Strain.
- Depending on what size bowls you are using for a mold, the amount of rice and meat you use will vary. Spray the inside of a bowl with nonstick spray and add rice to the bottom to about 1/3 of the way up the side. Next, add the meat filling for the middle 1/3. Fill with rice to the top of the bowl and press down to make sure everything is tight.
- Place a serving plate upside down onto the bowl, and flip the whole thing. Slowly remove the bowl and you should have a perfect mound of rice and beef.
