Description

Diced beef is simmered until tender with onions and herbs, then combined with tomatoes and simmered for some time longer. Do not try to add the tomatoes earlier, as this will increase the cooking time.

Bay leaf - 2 pieces
Cilantro - 1 bunch
Basil - 1 bunch

Step 3

Cut the tomatoes in half (crosswise), squeeze out the juice, and finely chop.
