HOW TO MAKE BEEF & GARBANZO BEANS- MAUI

This is a Filipino style braise, very easy to make and you don't need to be freaking Bobby Flay to do this shit! Nope, not at all...

Here's what you do, go to the market and get about 2 lbs. of Chuck roast, and take it home, give it a quick rinse under cold water, and wipe it dry. 

Then cut it into 1 inch cubes, sprinkle some salt and pepper over it and massage it into the cubes. Then get some olive oil, and pour about 1/2 cup in the bowl with the meat, massage that in. Let it sit.

Other Ingredients:

2 cloves of garlic
1 bay leaf
2 tbsp. of vegetable oil
1 small round sweet onion chopped
8 oz mushrooms sliced thin.
1 tbsp. sugar
14 fl oz of low sodium tomato sauce
2 tbsp. vinegar
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 can 10 oz. garbanzo beans

1. Heat up large stainless steel skillet over medium heat, toss in the oil, garlic and onions, sauté for about 5 minutes, then add in the meat, and cook until meat sweats out its juices.

2. Add in the bay leaf, mushrooms, sugar, tomato sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, cover skillet and lower heat and simmer for about 40 minutes.

3. Uncover skillet, add fish sauce and garbanzo beans, cover and cook for about 15 minutes. Uncover let rest. Serve with white rice. Adjust seasonings.

You can use any brand you like. Organic tends to cost a little more than nonorganic.

This is what a Chuck Roast looks like, remember this cut is good for stewing or braising because it comes from the shoulder part of the animal with more muscle movement it is a bit chewy.
