BEEF CALDERETA

This is a yummy recipe, a fusion of tomato sauce, liver pate, cheese and chunks of beef. This is a rich gourmet recipe from Batangas but instead of beef, they use goat's meat. It is more flavorful when beef is used, though. This recipe is so good, you can use any meat to cook it though preparation may vary. You may use lamb chops, chicken, and pork. Good for parties or weekend special meals. Taste goods even as leftovers!

Tips:

  • Brown the beef in batches. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the beef from overcrowding the pan, which can cause it to steam instead of brown.
  • Don't be afraid to use a variety of vegetables in your caldereta. Common vegetables include potatoes, carrots, bell peppers, and tomatoes. You can also add other vegetables that you like, such as green beans, corn, or zucchini.
  • Season the caldereta to taste. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and other spices, such as paprika, cumin, and oregano.
  • Simmer the caldereta for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is tender. This will allow the flavors to develop and the vegetables to soften.
  • Serve the caldereta with rice or bread. You can also garnish it with fresh cilantro or parsley.
