Beef Pochero

Beef is one of the expensive everyday ingredient for me. I often prepare beef dishes on Sunday when we gather together during lunch or dinner.

Did you know?

Grate a quarter of a small onion and add it and a dash of sugar and salt to the water in which you boil frozen or canned vegetables to improve the flavor or add a dash of MSG, garlic powder, pepper and onion flakes or powder to the salted boiling water before adding the vegetables for a richer flavor.
