How Do You Make Afritada (Apritada) Filipino Tomato Based Stew Recipe?
Here is a quick recipe perfect for mom and dads on the go! This is a Spanish recipe adopted by the Filipinos. It is sometimes served with raisins, but I opted not to put that in the recipe. You however are more than welcome to try it! It is a hearty and easy meal to make. It is very similar to American stews – Enjoy! If you are using ground meat brown it first, if not, proceed to step 2. To brown the meat, put the meat in the pot and add enough water to fill it up half way. Set the stove on medium high. Cover the pot and when the meat starts to fall away, use a spatula to break it apart. Brown until cooked thoroughly. Drain the meat and put it back in the pot. Add the tomato sauce and onions. Cut the potatoes and green peppers in cubes and add in the pot. Add frozen veggies and water. Cook until meat is thoroughly cooked and potatoes are soft. Cover and simmer. Serve with rice. Enjoy!
