Picadillo


Serves: 4
Total Calories: 453

Ingredients

1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chopped canned tomato
1 tablespoon vinegar
pinch of sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 bay leaf
3 drops Tabasco
1/2 cup seedless raisins
1/2 cup chopped green olives (optional)
1/2 cup blanched, slivered almonds

Directions:

Stir meats in a frying pan over high heat. When they begin to release fat, add onion and garlic. As the meat starts to brown, pour off fat and add all other ingredients except raisins, olives, and almonds. Simmer, covered, 30 minutes. Add water or stock if necessary, but not too much, for when done, the picadillo should be moist but not soupy. Finally, add raisins, olives, and almonds and cook 10 more minutes.
