Method

Preparation of Beef and Vegetables

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Thinly slice the onions and tomatoes. Chop the cilantro finely. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Beef

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the beef strips and sauté until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Onions and Tomatoes

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed. Add the sliced onions and sauté for about 3 minutes until they become translucent. Then add the tomatoes and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the sautéed beef to the skillet with the onions and tomatoes. Add chopped cilantro, mix well, and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Season with salt to taste.

Preparation of Fries

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips to form fries.

  2. 6

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat the oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the potato strips in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

Preparation of Rice Side

  1. 7

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes until the rice is cooked and all water is absorbed.
