Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a large pot, place the beef tail and cover it with 8 cups of water. Add salt and black pepper. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 2 hours, or until the meat is tender.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the meat is cooking, peel and chop the yuca, plantains, carrots, and potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Cut the corn into halves.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Aromatics

    Finely chop the onion and garlic cloves. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Add Vegetables to the Broth

    After 2 hours of simmering the meat, add the chopped yuca, plantains, corn, carrots, and potatoes to the pot. Stir gently.

  2. 5

    Add Seasonings

    Add cumin, oregano, bay leaves, chopped onion, garlic, and half of the cilantro to the pot. Stir to combine.

  3. 6

    Simmer the Sancocho

    Let the sancocho simmer for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Dish

    Once the vegetables are cooked, remove from heat. Squeeze lime juice over the soup and garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve hot with rice on the side if desired.
