Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- Clean and cut the meat, trimming out any excess fat
- In a large bowl, marinate the cut beef with Epis, Adobo seasoning, lemon juice, garlic, onion and salt.
- Mix well and set aside.
- While the beef marinates, prep the vegetables. Peel and cut the potatoes, malanga or taro, plantain, celery, carrots, beans and spinach.
- In a large pot, heat 3 tablespoons of oil. Add the marinated beef. Cover and cook on medium heat for about 10 minutes. The beef will cook in its own juices.
- Now uncover the pot and continue cooking till all the juice evaporates. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Continue to cook the beef, on high heat, till it develops a nice dark outer color
- To the beef, add the cloves, bay leaves and parsley. Then add the carrots, celery, beans, plantain, malanga or taro and the spinach. Do not add the potatoes now.
- Add 8 cups of water and the two bouillon cubes. Cover and bring to a boil. This should take 20-30 minutes. In the meantime, start making the dough dumplings.
- In a bowl, mix all the ingredients listed under Dumpling.
- Make into small balls and roll the balls between your hands and make it into small strings or ropes.
- Add the dumplings to the boiling soup and cook uncovered for another 20 minutes.
- Add the potatoes, cover and let it all cook together for about 10 minutes. This will be enough time for the potatoes to cook, but not break apart.
- Add more salt if needed. Take off heat and enjoy.
