Ingredients List:

Preparation:

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a large dutch oven over medium high heat. While the oil is heating up sprinkle the beef with white sugar.

Once the oil is hot, add the beef to the pot. Cook the beef, in batches, until it has browned, about 4 minutes. Continue cooking the batches of beef until it has all browned. Remove from the pot and set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium high heat. Add in sofrito, sazon, adobo, cumin, oregano, bay leaves, tomato sauce, cilantro, and thyme. Stir it occasionally.

Add the plantains, potatoes, calabaza, carrots, cassava, yautia, corn and beef and toss so everything is mixed in together. Add the beef broth and stir.

Cover and bring to a boil. Lower heat and allow to simmer until vegetables are tender and beef is cooked, about 1 hour.

Serve with white rice and a splash of lime juice.
