Here's my take on that favorite Spanish stew callos which is done in the lazy "throw-it-in" style--
1/2 kilo ox tail
1/2 kilo pig's feet, cleaned & cut
1/2 kilo ox tripe, cleaned & cut into bite-size strips
1/2 kilo beef tendon, cut into bite-size bits
1 medium can garbanzos (chick peas)
3 carrots, cubed
8 garlic heads, peeled & fast crushed (pound it with flat side of your knife)
1 medium can red pimentos, cut into bite-site bits
1 can of Chorizo de Bilbao (Purefoods is okay), cut into rounds
1/4 kilo cubed Chinese ham (Excellente, Adelina's or Majestic)
3 cans, liver spread (liverwurst)
1 1/2 liters tomato sauce
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3 beef cubes
3 onions, quartered
2 oranges, juiced
Sprinkle orange juice over ox tail, pig's feet, tripe and tendon. Marinade for around 30 minutes and bring to a boil for 15 minutes with 2 liters of water. Set aside.
In a large heavy cauldron, saute garlic and onions in olive oil. Add in Chorizo de Bilbao and Chinese Ham. Stir-fry for 3 minutes in high heat until aroma comes out. Add beef cubes, paprika, nutmeg. Simmer for another 3 minutes in medium heat.
Add the ox tail, pig's feet, tripe, tendon and broth to the cauldron. Add tomato sauce & liverwurst. Lower heat to minimum. Add salt & pepper to taste. Simmer for one hour, closed lid.
Add garbanzos, carrots & pimentos. Stir well and simmer for another 30 minutes.
As usual, you can adjust ingredient proportions to your taste.
Enjoy!
