Instructions to make "Ropa Vieja" (Shredded beef- panamanain style):
  1. Cook the brisket on boiling water until soft and tender. Seasoned the water with salt, garlic and onion (if using powder), pepper. I usually leave it like 1-2 hours.
  2. Once its cooked, remove it from pan and let it cool. Separate or tear out the meat. Dice tomatoes in small cubes, and bell pepper too.
  3. On a frying pan, add ur vegetable oil and put your tomatoes and bell pepper (if u're using garlic cloves and onion instead of powder u should add them now too). I like to squeeze tomatoes with a fork to get all the juices and flavor.
  4. Add your brisket on the pan and stir with veggies. Add the tomato paste and the cooking wine. Let it boil, add the sugar and taste it in case it needs more salt or seasoning.
  5. Add enough beef broth (water left from cooking ur beef) to the sauce. Cook it until sauce is ready and thickened.
  6. Serve and enjoy!
  7. ** This is our traditional version of a very popular dish in Panama, and other countries like Colombia and Venezuela. I have tried it also with chicken and pork and tastes good too!
  8. This is great served with white rice or rice and lentils with a simple salad, but i prefer it with caramelized ripe plantains for that sweetness touch (great flavor contrasts in ur mouth)
  9. You can also do pita pockets with your leftovers (which i do all the time and will share recipe later); or serve it with corn tortillas (not the mexican style but the ones similar to "arepas" that are fried) for breakfast or as snack.
