CALDILLO -- SOUTH OF THE BORDER STEW
This is a nice stew; make it as spicy as you like by adding or reducing the amounts of chili peppers. I happen to be fond of Ancho Chili Peppers. Please feel free to substitute your own favorites! Serve with your choice of tortillas

DEB'S CALDILLO (MEXICAN GROUND BEEF STEW)
This is a tart and hearty stew with a southwestern flavor. I made it up after visiting a local Texas restaurant which declined to give me their recipe for the delicious stew I ate there. Although mine tastes similar to theirs, it is much more tart (which I like) and hot (which I love!) Check it out if you like something a bit different. You won't be disappointed.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck roast or stew meat are both good options, as they have a lot of flavor and will become tender when cooked slowly.
- Brown the beef before stewing it. This will help to develop its flavor and give the stew a richer color.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to the stew. Good choices include potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, and bell peppers.
- Add some spices and herbs. This will help to give the stew a more complex flavor. Good choices include chili powder, cumin, oregano, and bay leaves.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to meld and the beef to become tender.
- Serve the stew over rice or with tortillas. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
Conclusion:
Caldillo is a delicious and hearty stew that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
