Beef and Vegetable Soup with beef, potato and carrot — USA recipe

🇺🇸USAAdvanced

Soups

Beef and Vegetable Soup

Cheap, tough beef cuts braised low and slow in broth with root vegetables until the meat is tender enough to break with a spoon. The collagen from those cuts dissolves into the broth over time and makes it thick and glossy. Expensive steaks make thin, bland soup.

Meat Dishes

Ground Beef and Potato Skillet

Ground beef and potatoes in one pan, done in 35 minutes. No advance prep, no separate boiling. The beef goes in first and builds a fond on the bottom of the pan; the potatoes cook in that flavoured fat with a splash of broth and a lid on top. It's the kind of meal that doesn't ask much of you on a weeknight.

Birria Tacos with Consommé (Mexican Quesabirria with Beef and Chile Broth) with beef chuck roast, beef short ribs and guajillo chiles — Mexico recipe

Meat Dishes

Birria Tacos with Consommé (Mexican Quesabirria with Beef and Chile Broth)

Birria tacos with consommé are crispy red corn tortillas filled with shredded chile-braised beef and melted cheese, served with a small bowl of the rich red braising broth for dipping. The dish originated in the Mexican state of Jalisco as a goat stew (birria de chivo); the modern beef quesabirria taco version exploded from food trucks in Tijuana around 2018 and became the most viral Mexican street food of the early 2020s. Three dried chiles do the heavy lifting: guajillo for fruity tang and red colour, ancho for raisiny earthiness, and a couple of chiles de árbol for heat. Active work is 30 minutes, the braise handles 3 hours of transformation. Serves 6 with 16 tacos and consommé to dip.

Currywurst with bratwurst, tomato paste and curry powder — Germany recipe

Appetizers and Sandwiches

Currywurst

Currywurst is Berlin street food: a pork sausage cut into rounds, buried under a hot tomato and curry sauce and dusted with curry powder on top. Herta Heuwer sold the first one at her stand in Charlottenburg in September 1949, and she built the sauce from tomato paste, curry powder and Worcestershire sauce rather than from ready-made ketchup. Berlin serves a skinless boiled sausage, pale and soft, while the Ruhr fries a bratwurst in its casing for the bite; both arrive with fries under ketchup and mayonnaise, ordered as Pommes rot-weiß.
