Have you tried Beef Mechado?

Germany
August 1, 2021 4:07am CST
Hello Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening to all my dear mylotters I woke up with a light rain and was not able to wake up early today. Therefore, no morning walk but will have an evening walk later if the rain stops. I did my dancing exercise Today, I will be preparing a simple dish I learned from my late father. It is his favorite. This Beef Mechado is really somehow similar to Beef stew the only difference is that the sauce is from tomato paste and not tomato sauce and a table spoon of soy sauce in it. The taste is somehow a little different but I like to make it sometimes just to have a different taste from the beef How about you my dear mylotters? Have you tried Beef Mechado? I hope you can share it with me here Have a great day and Happy mylotting Photo: google

This sounds very good, I sometimes use the tomato paste for some stews, I never tried to add soy sauce.

That`s ok. The soy sauce just brings a little salty to the dish. Thank you

If you know how to cook the beef stew it is the same way only that I used tomato paste and added up a tablespoon of soy sauce.

Oh, that looks and sounds so delicious! I never use tomato sauce, paste, or tomatoes in my beef stew, but will give this a try. I’m sure the soy sauce adds a zip to it.

My favorite. When I was young there's a canned mechado, that.came.easy when I crave for one. Lately I don't anymore see mechado in cans at the supermarket. Looks like about 2 or more years now. So got no choice but cook our own mechado or if available in some eateries I buy readymade.

Yes. It taste really good. Good thing that you can buy ready made food like that in your place. Here it is not available food like that. I really have to cook my own. Thank you
