Shredded Beef for Tacos


Shredded Beef for Tacos

Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 1.2Kg pack flank steak (Costco) or 2-3lb of lean braising/stewing steak
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 4-5 cloves garlic
  • 2-3 red chilies
  • 1-2 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • good pinch ground white pepper
  • good pinch salt
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp black treacle

Method

Sear the beef pieces, place in a pan with a good fitting lid or slow cooker with the other ingredients. give it all a good swish round to mix. 

Cook for around 6-8 hours until the beef easily falls apart. then with a fork shred the beef (the onions etc will be very soft by now too).

Serving

Serve with warmed crispy tacos, sour cream, sliced peppers salad and cheese & fresh coriander.

Supermarket mini salsa/guacamole/sour cream combo is hard to beat for value.

Storage

Once cooled this freezes very well.
