Craving a warm bowl of comfort? Mechado is a hearty, traditional Filipino braised beef stew, known for its rich and savory flavor profile. For his version, Chef Vincent browns cubes of flavorful beef chuck then gently simmers them to tender perfection with carrots, onions, and potatoes in beef stock and tomato puree accented with soy sauce and lemon juice, which imbues the dish with a deep umami character and subtle tanginess. He ladles a generous serving atop a bed of vibrant Cilantro Lime Rice and garnishes it all with fresh cilantro for an extra pop of color.
