CARNE GUISADA (cooked beef stew ) TEX- MEX STYLE is a dish I grew up with, It's chunky pieces of beef simmered in a delicious brown gravy loaded with flavor until falling apart tender. The spices of cumin, garlic, peppercorns and onions are a few of the must have ingredients. It is a simple dish to prepare. This dish brings back many memories of my childhood, we looked forward to the day my mom served it, I love siding it with refried beans, mexican rice or mashed potatoes and flour tortillas on the side, I smear some refried beans in the tortilla then fill it with CARNE GUISADA giving me the most amazing delicious messy taco. For an added kick I love a couple of spoonfuls of molcajete salsa to top it. CARNE GUISADA is a dish that will always satisfy.
