indio viejo

Indio viejo is a Nicaraguan preparation of shredded beef cooked with maize dough, tomato, onion and sweet pepper. Achiote colours the mixture; sour orange and mint season it.[1]

In Nicaragua Creativa’s recipe, the beef is cooked with onion, sweet pepper and garlic, then shredded. The meat and vegetables are sautéed before maize dough mixed with the beef broth is added and stirred over heat. Sour orange and mint finish the dish.[1]
