Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cut the beef chuck steak into 1-inch cubes.
  2. Place the beef cubes in a large pot or Dutch oven.
  3. Add 1 cup of water and salt to taste, ensuring the liquid covers the bottom of the pot.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
  5. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour to begin tenderizing the meat.
  6. While the beef simmers, prepare the tomato sauce by peeling and chopping tomatoes, quartering an onion, and mincing a garlic clove.
  7. Blend the tomatoes, onion, garlic, bay leaf, allspice, and a pinch of sugar until smooth.
  8. Heat vegetable oil in a separate medium saucepan over medium heat.
  9. Pour the tomato puree into the hot oil and bring to a boil.
  10. Reduce heat and simmer the sauce uncovered for 15 minutes to deepen the flavor.
  11. Pour the hot tomato sauce into the pot with the simmering beef.
  12. Add green olives and capers if desired, adjusting salt to taste.
  13. Cover the pot and continue to simmer for another 1 hour.
  14. Uncover the pot and simmer for an additional 30 minutes until the beef is fork-tender and the sauce has thickened.
