👨🍳 步驟
- 1
In a large pot, combine beef, 8 cups of water, bay leaves, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is very tender. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.

While the beef is simmering, prepare the sauce. If the dried chilies are very dry, rehydrate them in hot water for 20-30 minutes. In a blender, combine the rehydrated chilies, halved tomatoes, quartered tomatillos, quartered onion, peeled garlic cloves, toasted sesame seeds, toasted pumpkin seeds, and cumin. Add about 1 cup of the beef cooking broth to help blend.

Once the beef is tender, remove it from the pot to a cutting board. Reserve the cooking broth. Let the beef cool slightly, then shred it into thin strands using two forks or your fingers.
💡 專業提示: Ensure the beef is cool enough to handle before shredding. - 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Pour in the blended sauce mixture and simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it darkens slightly and thickens. Be careful not to burn it.

Add the shredded beef and about 2-3 cups of the reserved beef broth to the sauce. Stir well. Bring to a simmer.
💡 專業提示: Start with 2 cups of broth and add more if needed for desired consistency. - 6
Add the cubed potatoes and carrots to the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer for another 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

Serve hot, typically with white rice and corn tortillas.
💡 專業提示: Hilachas can be made ahead of time and reheated.
