- Chop the onion, garlic and leeks into very small pieces.
- Put the chopped vegetables in a dish with the olive oil.
- Season the pieces of bull and cover them in a little flour so they won’t stick to the dish.
- Put them on the stove together with the other ingredients just before the onion, leek and garlic are golden brown.
- After this, saute and stir with a spatula or a wooden spoon if possible. This way you will not damage the skillet.
- We cover the mixture with the estimated quantity of wine. We also add the vinegar, laurel, water, parsley and the salt.
- Wait until the stew simmers.
- When we see that the meat is almost done, the pieces are moved to another dish.
- The mixture that was left in the first dish is stirred with the help of a mixer. Once mixed well, add the meat of the bull and the potatoes cut into small pieces. Let them cook until they are tender.
- Serve hot and add more salt if necessary.
