Ingredients:
To clean the meat:
2 1/2 pound of beef
Lemon juice
Sour Orange Juice
Salt
2 limes cut in half
To Season the meat:
2 tablespoon of lime juice
2 Tablespoon of sour orange juice
3 cloves of smashed garlic
1 packet of Goya Chicken Bouillon
1 tablespoon of Sofrito
1 1/2 of Haitian Epis
1 teaspoon of garlic salt
1 teaspoon of hot sauce (OPTIONAL)
Ingredients to make the soup broth:
parsley/thyme
1 green hot pepper
2 carrots cut in half
1 half of red & green pepper
1 can of V8
1 tablespoon of Lily Butter
1 tablespoon of regular butter (YOUR CHOICE OF ANY BUTTER)
3 potatoes
1 yellow YAM
1 cup of lima beans
1 1/2 cup of spinach
Soup Dumplings (Ingredients)
3 Cups of Flour (White or Whole Wheat)
1 tablespoon of garlic salt
1 1/2 cups of water
1 tablespoon of butter
Clean beef using haitian meat cleaning method. (With lime, sour orange juice and salt) Wash the meat with cold water and repeat the cleaning process 3 times by washing the meat with the lime juice and salt and do a final wash of the meat
Marinate the beef with the seasoning ingredients and let it marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes to an 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Heat your pot on medium high heat and add the olive oil and the let the pot heat up and add your meat
Add 2 cups of water and let the meat cook for 45 minutes to an 1 hour
After that in a separate pot, boil your potatoes separately. THE REASON FOR THIS IS BECAUSE IF YOU WERE TO ADD YOUR POTATOES TO BOILING WATER FOR A LONG TIME, IT WILL MAKE THE POTATOES CRUMBLE AND MUSHY :/ SO IT BEST TO BOIL IT SEPARATELY FOR 30 MINUTES THAN ADD THE POTATOES TOWARD THE END OF FINISHING THE SOUP
After that you will brown the meat for 3 minutes before adding the water to deglaze the pan.
Add the lima beans, spinach and carrots
After that I will add one cup of water to steam and cook the vegetables and cover the pot and let it cook for 10 minutes
Next I will peel and cut the Yellow Yam before putting in the stew
MAKE SURE YOU ADD THE YAMS TO COLD WATER MIXED WITH LEMON JUICE JUST SO THE YAM WONT GET BROWN AND YOU WANT IT TO STAY THAT YELLOW COLOR
After a couple of minutes has passed, check your meat to make sure the meat has not completely dried out and add another cup of water to the meat.
While you wait for the water to evaporate in the meantime, start making your flour dumplings while your meat is still cooking with the vegetables
Please Note: DO NOT STIR WHEN THE DUMPLINGS ARE IN THE POT AS STIRRING WILL CAUSE THE DUMPLINGS TO FALL APART :/
Than after that add 8 cups of water to create the broth and then add your dumplings
After 5 minutes, add in your yam
Add parsley/thyme , green peppers, butter and hot pepper to the broth
I let it simmer for 5 minutes and add the V8 to your soup. I PREFER V8 BECAUSE IT HAS BETTER FLAVORING THAN ADDING TOMATO PASTE OR TOMATO JUICE
After that add in your already boiled potatoes to the soup and after that remove your thyme
AFTER THAT YOU ARE READY TO EAT...BON APETIT :D
