👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Season the beef chuck roast generously with salt and pepper.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Sear the beef roast on all sides until deeply browned. Remove the beef and set aside.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Add the chopped onion and bell peppers to the pot and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 4
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
⏱️ 1 minute - 5
Pour in the dry red wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 6
Add the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, cumin, and oregano. Stir to combine.
💡 Profitipps: Ensure all seasonings are well distributed. - 7
Return the seared beef to the pot. Bring the liquid to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is very tender and easily shreds.
⏱️ 3 hours💡 Profitipps: Check liquid levels periodically and add more broth or water if needed. - 8
Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the sauce.
💡 Profitipps: Allow the beef to cool slightly before shredding for easier handling. - 9
While the Ropa Vieja is finishing, prepare the Arroz Moro. In a separate pot, combine the white rice, rinsed black beans, water, and 1 tsp salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.

Season the Ropa Vieja sauce with additional salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the Ropa Vieja over the Arroz Moro. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.
