Sudado de Carne de Res or Colombian Beef Stew
Sudado de Res is a very popular dish in Colombia, is very easy to make and delicious over white rice with avocado on the side. I think every Colombian home makes a sudado dish a least once a week. Sudados can also be made with pork or chicken.
INGREDIENTS
(4 SERVINGS)
2 pounds beef for stew
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped red bell pepper
1 minced garlic clove
2 cup chopped tomato
1 beef bouillon tablet
¼ teaspoon cumin powder
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
8 small yellow potatoes, peeled and cut in half
½ pound frozen or fresh yuca (cassava)
3 cups water
Directions
1. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion and red pepper and sauté until onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Then add the tomatoes, garlic, salt and ground pepper and sauté for 5 more minutes.
2. Add the beef, water, beef bouillon and cumin powder. Reduce the heat to medium low cover and cook for 45 to 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add the potatoes, yuca and cilantro and cook for an additional 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
4. Serve over white rice.

Can this be made in a crockpot/slow cooker? If so, do I have to changr anything? Can the majority of your meals be cooked in the crockpot?
Yes, but the cooking time will be 4 hours (high heat) or 8 (low heat) and 2 cups of water or beef stock .
Aimee, I don’t cook all my meals in the slow cooker, but some of them.
