Servings: persons

1/4 cup peanut oil
2 red or green bell peppers seeded and diced
10 oz. can of Mexican green tomatoes
2 cloves
1/2 cup beef stock, more or less
1 medium onion finely chopped
1 hot red or green pepper seeded and diced
4 medium tomatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/2 tsp. oregano
2 Tbsp. corn meal or 2 stale tortillas or 2 Tbsp. masa harina
2 cloves garlic minced
3 lb. lean boneless beef chuck cut into 1 inch cubes
1 bay leaf
salt and fresh ground pepper
Arroz Guatemalteco (rice, Guatemalan Style)

1
Heat the oil in a heavy saucepan or casserole and saute the onion, garlic, and peppers until the onion is soft.
2
Add the meat and all the other ingredients except the tortillas.
3
The liquid should barely cover the meat.
4
Add a little more stock, if necessary.
5
Cover, and simmer gently until the beef is tender, about 2 hours.
6
If using tortillas soak them in cold water, squeeze them out, and crumble like breadcrumbs.
7
Add to the casserole and simmer, uncovered, until the sauce is thickened.
8
If using masa harina or cornmeal, mix it with a little cold water and stir into the stew, cooking just until the sauce is thickened (cornmeal will take a few minutes longer to thicken).
9
Serve the stew on a bed of Arroz Guatemalteco (rice, Guatemalan Style).
