How to cook it
-
Season the beef with the salt and pepper, then heat the olive oil in a large heavy pot and brown it in batches over medium-high heat, about 8 minutes total, and set aside.
-
Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
Return the beef to the pot, pour in the beef broth, add the bay leaf, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over low heat for 45 minutes.
-
Add the potatoes and carrots and simmer, partly covered, for 25 to 30 minutes more, until the beef and vegetables are all fork-tender.
-
Fish out the bay leaf and taste for salt before ladling into deep bowls; the most ordinary meat dish in Spain, and the catalog has had none of it.
