Directions

1. Season beef with MAGGI MAGIC SARAP and pepper. Lay the beef flat and place bacon in single layer. Place carrot, pickled cucumber and chorizo in the middle. Roll tightly and truss using butcher’s twine.

2. Preheat oil in a wide pan and sear beef on all sides. Set aside. Sauté garlic in the same pan until golden brown. Add onion and cook for 1 minute. Add tomato paste and cook for 5 minutes over low heat. Pour and stir in water.

3. Add the seared beef, bay leaf, sugar and pepper. Simmer for 2-3 hours or until tender. Skim the scum as needed. Add water as needed and stir once in a while to prevent scorching. Add olives and simmer for another 10 minutes. Season with MAGGI MAGIC SARAP.

4. Remove beef from the sauce and remove the twine. Cut into ½ inch slices. Pour the sauce in a deep dish platter and place beef slices on top. Serve.
