Directions:

Start off by cutting your beef chunk into small cubes. I like to cut it in tiny pieces, that way it cooks much faster.

• Place beef cubes into a soup pot, pour in 8 cups of cold water and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low and cover the pot with a lid. Continue cooking until beef pieces become soft. Takes about 30-60 minutes, depends on the size of the pieces.
• Once beef is soft and ready, add in the potatoes and rice, bring to a boil, and continue cooking over medium heat for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender and rice is cooked through.

• While potatoes are cooking, heat olive oil in a sauce pan and sauté onions until soft (7 minutes.)  Once onions are soft, add the tomato sauce and cook for 2 more minutes, then turn off the heat.

• The last thing you need to do is add the tomato sauce with onions into the soup pot, then finally season with salt and pepper. Mix carefully until the sauce is blended.
• Let stand for 10 minutes covered with a lid before serving.
• Garnish each plate with fresh parsley and serve with a slice of toasted bread.
