Preparation
Boil the beef with the onion and bay leaf for 1h30 until it shreds easily.
Drain the meat, keeping the broth, then shred it with a fork.
Sauté the onion, bell pepper and garlic in oil until tender.
Add the crushed tomato and cumin, simmer 10 min.
Stir in the shredded meat and a little reserved broth, mix.
Simmer uncovered 20 min so the sauce reduces and coats the meat.
Serve piping hot with white rice and black beans.
