BEEF POCHERO



Ingredients:

  • 1/2 kilo beef cut into cubes (select a cut good for stewing)
  • 1 small head of a cabbage quartered
  • 1/4 kilo Chinese cabbage (pechay)
  • 2 medium sized potatoes quartered
  • 5 plantains peeled and sliced in the middle
  • 1 big can pork and beans
  • 1/2 cup tomato paste
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • salt and pepper to taste

Procedure:
1. Start by frying the plantains. Just let them fry until slightly golden brown. Take off         the oil and set aside.
2. Saute the garlic and onions. Then add in the beef. Saute until it changes color.                 Season with some salt and pepper.
3. Next add in the tomato paste and water.
4. Mix and let it boil. Cover and simmer over low medium heat until beef is tender..
5. Once the beef is tender, add in the potatoes. Let it simmer some more until the               potatoes are cooked.
6. At this point you can add in the rest of the ingredients. The veggies, pork and beans       and plantains. I usually just pile them in and cover for a few minutes allowing the        veggies to wilt a bit

7. Afterward I gently mix them until their well incorporated into the sauce. Serve your      beef pochero and enjoy!
