Today’s recipe is one of my old time yummy super mega favourite, birria! Yum! Birria is a stew originally from the state of Jalisco, specifically from the city of Guadalajara, but as any Mexican recipe, everybody seems to have their own version, so this is my version, I tried to make it as similar as the one they do in Guadalajara, but this is just the way I do it. I hope you like it. Continue reading “Birria de Res (Beef Birria)”
What are you cooking today? Well I cooked some delicious Caldo de Res or a lot of people know it as “Cocido” which is Beef Broth or Stew. My dad was a fan of these type of recipes, he even used to cook this in summer!!! I know, a bit crazy right? But according to him this dish makes miracles, especially for children, he used to make us eat everything in it. Continue reading “Caldo de Res (Beef Broth)”

It is Friday and el inglés, aka my hubby, is working from home, outside the weather is not very pleasant, so we fancied something yummy to cheered us up and I remember this dish “Bistec Ranchero” that would always put a smile on my dad’s face, it was his favourite breakfast ever, although we are having this as our lunch!

Good morning lovely people! Today’s recipe is a classic dish from Jalisco, Carne en su Jugo and if you translate it into English, it means, beef in its own juices, but here is the thing, the meat is not really cook in its own juices, this lovely and delicious dish goes with a yummy salsa that is prepared with tomatillos, then when you serve it, you need to serve it with fresh frijoles de la olla (beans from the pot), so if you plan to cook this dish, put your pinto beans to soak early in the morning and then cook them, so they’re ready to have them with the beef.

Winter is the perfect time for cosy and comfort food and today is one of those days that I just fancy some of my mum’s soups, but unfortunately she is miles away from me, so I decided to make one of her famous soups, albondigas! This is a nice cosy dish that will definitely will always take me back to my childhood, my mum would always make them on a cold winter day and we would arrived from school and the whole house would had that lovely and yummy smell!! Aw! I really miss my mum right now! Continue reading “Albondigas a la Mexicana (Mexican Style Meatballs)”
Recently I have been posting many vegetarian recipes because of my hubby, he doesn’t want to eat meat anymore, in fact, he is thinking very seriously of becoming vegetarian, thing that I am not against, but I am not prepared to do it myself, I have to confess to you that I like meat, in fact, I love a good steak and I am the kind of person that thinks that everything in moderation is the key, so when I buy and eat meat, I usually buy it from my local organic butcher, so in that way I know the animal had a good life and it was well fed.
