Veggies:
In a pan, heat the cooking oil and brown the cubed chuck steak.
Season the meat with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
For the sauce, blend together the tomatoes, onion, whole cumin, salt, garlic cloves, and water, adjusting the salt to your preference. Set the blended sauce aside.
Add veggies to meat using the fat for flavor and saute until they are semi tender.
Combine the sauce and bay leaves with the sautéed vegetables and bring to a vigorous boil for 5 minutes.
Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes until potatoes are cooked through.
Serve the guisado alongside rice.
