Today I am going to share a great recipe for a cold winter day, the beef and tomato stew. It is also one of my favorite dishes. To keep the beef in this dish tender and juicy, I have two small tips to share with you.
Tip number one: Put the raw beef in cold water, and bring it to boil, after the beef has changed color, discard the water and rinse the beef under cold running water, drain well and set aside (as shown in the picture below).
The second tip to help make sure the beef is tender is after adding the tomatoes, pour in hot water to simmer instead of cold water.
Top with chopped chili peppers if you like spicy and a handful of cilantro, the dish is now ready to be served.
Below is a step-by- step demonstration of how I made this dish with pictures.
I hope you enjoy making this tasty beef and tomato stew at home. If you like this recipe, please leave a rating and share it with your friends!
