How to make Dominican Sancocho:

  1. Recipe details: Difficulty level: 5 Preparation time: 40 min cooking time: 60
  2. 1 large green pepper, chopped small 1/2 sprig of parsley 2 small red onions, chopped 2 cloves of garlic, crushed 2 or 3 coriander leaves 2 chicken broth 1 beef broth 2 tablespoons vinegar 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce In a large pot, cook put a little oil (2 1/2 tablespoons) and a little sugar (1/2 teaspoon) over high heat.
  3. The meat is thrown all together so that it softens a little and browns.
  4. Cover and leave until cooked (20-30 mins approx.), stirring from time to time, until much of the liquid is consumed.
  5. The meat is removed and set aside.
  6. If the chicken is broken, it is removed separately so that it does not continue to break apart and then it is added at the end.
  7. If the meat is whole, it doesn’t matter, better.
  8. In the same cauldron that the meat was boiled, add water (up to half the cauldron) with the rest of the liquid and let it boil; Add the groceries and the vegetables to season on top, cover and let it boil quite a bit (about 40 min. approx.) or until the groceries are cooked.
  9. Then add the meat and a spoonful of Worcestershire sauce.
  10. Missing like 10 min. for the salcocho to be, add the vinegar (about 2 tablespoons).
  11. Salt is tested and added if needed.
  12. If you want the plantain buns, something very typical Dominican (see below), you can pour them on top and let them boil until the sancocho is ready.
  13. Banana roll: The raw banana is peeled and finely guaya.
  14. Add a pinch of salt and form balls with your hand about an inch in diameter.
  15. Cornmeal buns: the flour is mixed with a little salted milk and a teaspoon of butter.
  16. They are formed just like the banana buns. This dish is accompanied with white rice and avocado.
