Instructions
- Combine the beef and soy sauce in a bowl. Mix well. Marinate for 30 minutes.
- Melt the margarine in a pan. Add the annatto powder and stir.
- Add the garlic and sauté until it starts to brown. Add the onion and continue to sauté until it becomes soft.
- Add the marinated beef. Sauté until the outer part turns light brown. Make sure to stir frequently while cooking to ensure that all sides are cooked evenly.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and pickle relish. Cook for 2 minutes.
- Pour in the water and let it boil.
- Add the beef powder. Stir and cover the pan. Simmer until the beef becomes tender.
- Add the liver spread, peanut butter (optional), cheese, and chili peppers. Stir until the sauce smoothens. The sauce will thicken partially after a few minutes.
- Continue cooking on low heat for 5 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally to prevent the sauce and meat from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Add the breadcrumbs. This ingredient will make the sauce thicker.
- Season with salt and ground black pepper.
- Serve and dig in!
Notes
- You're not alone. A lot of Filipinos get confused too! To give you some idea, kaldereta is a Filipino stew with a rich flavor from liver spread and a spicy kick from chili peppers or hot sauce, while menudo includes pork or beef with potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers in a sweet and tangy tomato sauce, often with liver and raisins. On the other hand, mechado features marinated beef cooked with garlic in a savory tomato sauce with potatoes and carrots. Happy to help!
- The main difference between Thai chili peppers and siling labuyo is their size and shape. Thai chilies are small, long, and narrow, ending in a point. On the other hand, siling labuyo are also small but shorter and have a rounded tip instead of a pointy one. This makes it easy to tell them apart just by looking at them!
