Directions: 
  1. Preheat roaster over medium-high heat, approximately 5-7 minutes or until several drops of water sprinkled on the pan skitter and dissipate.
  2. While the roaster is preheating, trim steak of any excess fat and cut into 12 inch pieces.
  3. Add steak, whole tomatoes, garlic, peppers, onion and salt to roaster, cook for 30 mins on medium heat.
  4. Wash potatoes and cut them into 12 inch pieces.
  5. Remove tomatoes, garlic, peppers and onion, blend until liquefied.
  6. Pour the puree over the steak and add potatoes, water, pepper, cumin and remainder of salt. Stir to combine.
  7. Place cover on roaster. When Vapo-Valve™ begins to click steadily, reduce heat to low and cook for 45 minutes until liquid has thickened and meat is tender.
  8. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  9. Serve hot with a side of Spanish rice.
Tips: 
  • Substitute serrano peppers for jalapeño peppers. Add additional peppers to add more heat to the dish.
  • Serve with corn or flour tortillas.
