2 1/2 lb flank steak
1 sliced carrot
1 cubed turnip
1 small bunch green onions, chopped
2 tablespoons oil
1 finely chopped onion
1 chopped clove of garlic
1 chopped green pepper
1 chopped fresh hot pepper
2 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped
1 bay leaf
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp cloves
2 canned pimentos, diced
Simmer beef, carrot, turnip and green onions until the meat is
tender about 1 1/2 hours, using water to cover. When meat is tender
remove from heat, allow meat to cool and then shred it with your
fingers. Save the stock. In a large frying pan, heat oil and
saute onion, garlic, and peppers until the vegetables are tender.
Add tomatoes, bay leaf and spices and cook until you have a thick,
rich sauce. Add 2 cups stock, the pimentos and beef and simmer
for 5 minutes.
