Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lean beef (eye round roast), cubed

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 large onion, chopped

  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped

  • 1⁄4 teaspoon salt

  • 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper

  • 1⁄4 cup cilantro

  • 1 can (15 ounces) stewed tomatoes

  • 1⁄3 can (2 ounces) tomato paste

  • 1 can (1 pound, 13 ounces) hominy

Instructions

In a large pot, heat oil. Saute beef. Add onion, garlic, salt, pepper, cilantro, and enough water to cover the meat. Cover pot and cook over low heat until meat is tender. Add tomatoes and tomato paste. Continue cooking for about 20 minutes. Add hominy and continue cooking for another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, over low heat.
