Corned Beef Guisado

Just finished preparing my lovely daughter for school. Today I made her favorite for brunch. Simple and yet satisfying, Corned beef. My family loves to cook good food that usually requires going to the market but this one comes from the can of Purefoods corned beef, the blue one. No offense meant but the blue one is really my can of choice since it has true beef meat and the tender taste of real beef that no other brands can satisfy my sensitive buds. Of course there are different ways of cooking the corned beef but for my family, nothing beats the simple corned beef "guisado" or hash without the eggs.















Ingredients:

2 tbsp oil
1 can of purefoods corned beef (or brand of choice)
2 potatoes (cut into strips or small cubes)
1/2 cloves garlic
1 medium onion
1/2 cup of water

Directions:

1. Put 2 tbsp oil in heated pan
2. Add the potatoes and leave for a few minutes
3. Toss in the onion, garlic and corned beef.
4. Add water and let it boil for 2-3 minutes but leave it juicy.
5. Serve with rice

Enjoy!
