Lengua Guisada

Ingredients

• •2 lbs beef tongue
• •3 tablespoons olive oil
• •1 large onion, diced
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
• •1 cup beef broth (gluten-free)
• •1 lb potatoes, cubed
• •1/2 cup green olives, pitted
• •2 tablespoons tomato paste
• •1 teaspoon cumin
• •1 teaspoon salt
• •1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1. 1Boil the beef tongue in salted water for 45 minutes until partially tender, then remove and slice into thin pieces.
2. 2Heat olive oil in a large pot and sauté onion and garlic until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
3. 3Add tomato paste and cumin, stirring for 1 minute until combined.
4. 4Pour in crushed tomatoes and beef broth, then add the sliced tongue and potatoes.
5. 5Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30 minutes until potatoes are tender.
6. 6Stir in the olives, salt, and pepper, and simmer uncovered for 5 more minutes.
7. 7Serve hot with rice or crusty bread.

💡 Beef tongue becomes tender only after long simmering. Peel it while still warm, because the outer skin is much harder to remove once chilled.
