Ingredients

Sopi Weso Blanco

    basil
  • 1 cube beef stock
  • 2 lbs of beef ribs (or any meat with bones)
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 1/2 tsp of mashed garlic
  • 2 large carrots
  • 1 cup of gem squash cut in small cubes
  • 1 cup of cassava chopped in small cubes
  • 1 lbs potatoes cut in small cubes

Directions

Wash the meat or beef with lime and vinegar. In a pot with 8 cups of water bring the meat with bones to a boil with the beef stock. While boiling the bones, they will expose the fat. Use a large spoon to remove the fat from the pot. After 1 hour and 30 minutes lower to medium heat and add onions, garlic and squash.

It's ready to be served.

Caution: This soup is rather heavy so it is not recommended to accompany it with Funchi or Pan Bati.
