Number Of Ingredients 21

3 quarts water
2 pounds beef (preferably flank steak), cut into 3-inch hunks
1 pound pork chops
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 hot green peppers, chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Tabasco sauce to taste
1/2 pound Jamaican pumpkin (calabaza), peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces
2 ears fresh corn, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
1 pound white or yellow Caribbean yams, peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces
2 green plantains, peeled and cut into 2-inch slices
1 pound yuca (cassava), peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces

  • Place the water in a large saucepan and add the meats, garlic, onion, cilantro, peppers, oregano, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Cook over medium heat until the meat is soft, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove the pork chops with a slotted spoon. Remove the bones and return to the pan. Add the pumpkin and the corn and simmer for 15 minutes.
