ingredients

1 pound stew meat
4 potatoes peeled and cut into cubes
1 can (16 ounce size) tomato sauce
1 teaspoon cumin powder
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup oil
enough water to cover ingredients
2 teaspoons cilantro
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

directions

Brown the meat in oil in a dutch oven or large pan. While meat is browning, in a bowl mix tomato sauce, cumin, garlic, and cilantro.

When the meat is brown, add potatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the tomato mixture and enough water to cover all the ingredients, and cook til potatoes are transparent.

cook's notes

For a tastier stew, simmer the browned meat with tomato mixture and about 2 cups of water for about 30 - 45 minutes, then add the rest of the ingredients and cook til potatoes are done. You can also add a can of green beans or peas towards the end of the cooking time.

This is a stew that tastes good with French bread.
