Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Red rice (Arroz rojo); Creamy pinto beans (Frijoles pintos cremosos)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Such a great end of season use of big fat red tomatoes and the plethora of red chiles. Very tasty.

    OK, so we did like this, but I made with beef chuck, as that was what was available at the supermarket I had to cook it way longer than the original directions, and should have covered it when putting in oven for longer braise, it reduced too far and browned too much. Not the recipe's fault!
