Carbonada Criolla

A beef dish from the Argentinian kitchen.

Ingredients

  • 500g Beef
  • 1 chopped Onion
  • 2 chopped Carrots
  • 2 chopped Potatoes
  • 1 small Pumpkin
  • 100g Dried Apricots
  • 2 Litres Beef Stock
  • To taste Salt
  • To taste Pepper

Method

  1. Brown the Beef: In a large pot, brown the beef cubes. Remove and set aside. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, cook the onion until translucent. Add carrots, potatoes, and pumpkin, cooking for a few minutes. Simmer: Return the beef to the pot. Add broth and dried apricots. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 1-2 hours, until the beef is tender. Serve: Enjoy hot, with a crusty piece of bread. Pro Tips:
  2. Brown the beef in batches to ensure it gets a good sear, which adds depth to the stew's flavor. Adding the fruits towards the end of cooking preserves their texture and adds a subtle sweetness to the dish.
