Picadillo
Ingredients:
1 lb. lean ground beef
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2" cubes
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced fine (1/4" or less)
1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced fine (1/4" or less)
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced fine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin (comino)
2 large tomatoes, cut into 1/2" pieces
Directions:
Heat a large skillet and add the olive oil. Add the ground beef, crumbling as you put it in the skillet. When lightly browned, add the onions, bell pepper, garlic, and all the spices. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, and then add the diced potatoes. Cover, reduce the heat to medium low and cook for 40 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Add the tomatoes, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, put into a bowl and serve over white rice. In Puerto Rico we add red kidney beans on the side and fried plantains. Yum!
