Ingredients

  • 1 lb. red beans
  • 1 lb. rice, washed several times
  • 1 1/2 lbs. salt pork, cubed
  • 1 lb. yucca, cut up
  • 1 lb. ~name, cut up
  • 1 sweet pepper, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 3 or 4 cloves garlic, mashed
  • 1 small can of tomato paste
  • Salt & Pepper

Directions

1

Wash beans and put in a large pot with plenty of water.

2

Add 1 tablespoon of salt, and boil until almost tender.

3

Add the salt pork and as the water cooks away keep adding more until the beans are cooked.

4

Then add the rice, blending it well with the beans and meat.

5

About half an hour later add the yucca.

6

In another half hour, add the ~name. When the ~name is tender, the guacho is ready to serve. While the guacho is cooking, make a "refrito" with the remaining vegetables and tomato paste. Put a big tablespoonful of "refrito" on top of each serving of guacho.
