Caldereta is a comforting beef stew popular in the Philippines. Every family has its own version. Experiment with the ingredients and try different vegetables. Best served with white rice! Ingredients:
2 pounds beef chuck, cubed |
12 ounces chorizo sausage |
1/4 cup garlic, minced |
1/4 cup white vinegar |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed |
1 onion, chopped |
1 green bell pepper, chopped |
3 cups tomato sauce |
2 cups peeled and cubed potatoes |
1 cup drained canned peas |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine beef chuck, chorizo, garlic, vinegar, and soy sauce in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until beef chuck is browned and liquid is reduced, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
2. Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat; cook and stir onion and green bell pepper in the hot oil until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato sauce and simmer until liquid is slightly reduced, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Stir beef-chorizo mixture into tomato sauce mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover pot, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes.
4. Stir potatoes, peas, salt, and pepper into stew; simmer until beef is tender and potatoes are cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes. Add water if needed.
