Step 1

Step 2
Get a pan and make it nice and hot over medium heat. Pour some oil and throw in the onions and garlic and sauté until light brown in color.
Step 3
Add in the tenderized beef and saute for 1 minute.
Step 4
Stir in the liver spread, tomato paste and bay leaves. Mix well.
Step 5
Add 1½ cups of the broth and Knorr Beef Cube. Simmer for 5 minutes before adding the potatoes and carrots. Continue to simmer until vegetables are tender and the sauce has slightly thickened.
Step 6
Lastly, add bell peppers. You may also add the olives and cheese at this point if desired. And that's it! Classic Beef Caldereta is best enjoyed with the company of family because something as good as this is best shared with loved ones.
