Mom’s Carne Guisada
Bite-sized chunks of round steak are sauteed with cumin and garlic, then simmered in flour-thickened sauce with onions and bell peppers. Good over rice, noodles, or in burritos.
Garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper, to taste, should all be used to season the meat.
In a big skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
When the meat has browned on all sides, add it and cook for 5 to 10 minutes.
Sauté for another minute after adding the flour and stirring well.
Add the water gradually, breaking up any lumps of flour as you go.
After that, add the green bell pepper and onion, lower the heat, and let the mixture simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
Add pepper and salt to taste.
