Carne con papas is a Beef stew with potatoes very popular in Latin countries, usually served with rice. A meal that the whole family loves. A foolproof all-time favorite!
Carne con Papas ( Beef and potatoes stew) is another recipe that reminds me of my mother. As all of us know, when you are raising a large family you have to be really creative to feed them. The uncertainty in the economy makes this task sometimes challenging. But my mom always managed to use simple ingredients to prepare savory meals without spending a lot of money.
This is an easy way to better manage our money at home. She used to add potatoes, carrots, zucchini or chayotes to the meals to take as much advantage of the flavor of the protein of the day, either chicken or beef. Going out to eat was out of the question, just imagine going out for dinner with 8 children!
